| Popis: | Some drivers think that seatbelt is not important, and some even not wearing it when driving a car. The awareness of using a seatbelt is questionable around the world. Even there are enough enforcement and rules, people may tend to forget or just ignore it. Some factors can lead or prevent someone from using a seatbelt, somehow the essence is always within the individual itself. This research discovered the seatbelt awareness among drivers that lives in the rural area. This research was done in Perlis, and a cross-sectional design was adopted in this study. The result reveal based on the three different generations and the area of living. Item constructed specifically for this study, and Cronbach Alpha is 0.75. Convenience sampling was done and 100 questionnaires were returned. Overall results showed the level of awareness among people living in Perlis is high, and there is a significant difference between three locations (village, FELDA, and residential area) in awareness level. The result of this study will bring benefits for the enforcement to help them identify areas and specific generations that need more attention. |
