This survey consists of a series of questions about Destination Zero, your thoughts on its goals and strategies, your experiences, and your perceptions of traffic safety in your community. The information collected from this survey will be used to better understand public awareness and support for Destination Zero and to identify opportunities to improve transportation safety practices and policies. The survey has twelve (12) questions, plus six (6) sociodemographic questions. Your responses are anonymous.
