Surveys
These national surveys are designed to provide a consistent measure of cycle helmet use over time, by surveying the same sites each year. We can use this data to consider the regional wearing rates.
Cycle helmets compliance surveys
The latest annual national survey of helmet use in New Zealand by cyclists of all ages was carried out in March and April 2009. Over 5,000 cyclists were observed at 58 sites around the country.
The survey is continuous, to give us up-to-date travel data and travel trends over time. The information will help us to improve road safety. It will also help transport planners to understand how transport systems are working and to prepare for the future.
Safety belt compliance surveys
The latest annual national survey of safety belt use in New Zealand by adults in the front seats of cars and vans was carried out in March and April 2009.
