N2  - OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship of driver dispositions with traffic safety behaviors and beliefs. METHODS: A random digit-dial telephone survey was conducted of 796 licensed drivers. RESULTS: Binary and multivariate logistic regression analyses compared hurried and nonhurried drivers and found that hurried drivers were more likely to admit to a variety of risky behaviors. They were also less likely to believe they would be ticketed for speeding and to report wearing their seat belt than were nonhurried drivers. CONCLUSIONS: More research is needed into identifying the underlying motivational factors of hurried drivers and what countermeasures will be most effective for them.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
