SAMPLING OF DRIVER OPINIONS TOWARD PERIODIC MOTOR VEHICLE INSPECTION

A SAMPLING OF THE OPINIONS OF MOTOR VEHICLE OPERATORS WAS OBTAINED TO DETERMINE PUBLIC ATTITUDES TOWARD SEVERAL ASPECTS OF MOTOR VEHICLE INSPECTION. THE SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED IN 3 CITIES WHILE THE OPERATORS WERE HAVING THEIR VEHICLES INSPECTED AT LANE TYPE OF FACILITIES. THE INSPECTION STANDARDS WERE SIMILAR IN EACH OF THE CITIES; HOWEVER, THE PERIODS OF INSPECTION VARY. THE RESULTS OF THIS SURVEY INDICATE THAT THOSE WHO RESPONDED WERE OVERWHELMINGLY IN FAVOR OF MOTOR VEHICLE INSPECTION. AREAS OF OPPOSITION APPEARED TO BE VERY MINOR.
