Locauto on Tour – 3rd Edition

On the Path to Safe Driving

4 road safety education talks with Locauto

For the third consecutive year, we are renewing our commitment to promoting safe, responsible, and sustainable mobility throughout Italy with the third edition of “Locauto on Tour.” Following the success of the first and second tours, we’re continuing our journey to meet with students in the cities where we operate rental offices, with the goal of fostering a culture of road safety and raising awareness—particularly among younger generations—about the risks associated with unsafe driving behaviors.

 

Four stops, each in a different city

YouGov Survey for Locauto

As part of the Locauto on Tour project, a third survey was conducted in collaboration with YouGov on a national sample of 1,000 adult respondents (age 18 and older), which revealed that:

  • 71% of Italian drivers say they need to brush up on some road rules
  • 16% of drivers use drugs before driving
  • 31% of drivers consume alcoholic beverages before driving
  • 46% of drivers admit to using their cell phones at least once while behind the wheel
  • 10% of drivers do not routinely wear their seat belts
  • 60% of drivers would not contact the authorities in the event of a traffic accident, even if necessary
  • 26% of drivers have no idea what penalties the Highway Code imposes for alcohol and drug use
  • 52% say they have driven at least once while sleepy or tired
  • 34% of drivers are unaware of the restrictions that new drivers must follow (engine displacement, speed limits, blood alcohol limit)
  • 44% of drivers have not helped—or would not help—people involved in a traffic accident if they witnessed one

Education, awareness and responsibility

The research findings confirm just how crucial it is to invest intraffic safety education, particularly amongyoung people and new drivers.

Through projects such as Locauto on Tour, we are committed to:

  • promotesafe and responsible driving;
  • involvelocal institutions, experts, and law enforcement agencies;
