The 2022 Florida survey included 165 newly selected sites across 15 counties. These sites were selected randomly to represent all the traffic on various roadway types around the State of Florida. The same sites were revisited for the 2023 and 2024 surveys. Data collection for the 2024 survey began May 31st and was completed on June 6th.
Observations were randomly scheduled for all days of the week during daylight hours, between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. One-hour observations took place at each site. During those observations, observers recorded information on vehicle type, driver sex, driver race, estimated driver age group, and driver safety belt use. When an outboard passenger was present in the front seat, observers also recorded information on passenger sex, race, age, and belt use.
