Psychological influences on traffic law compliance

Abstract

RESUMO------Neste artigo procede-se a uma revisão de estudos sobre o aumento da submissão dos condutores a legislação de tráfego. Estes vão desde os que manipularam diferentes níveis de controlo policial até aos que se debruçaram sobre o fornecimento aos condutores de informações sobre os níveis existentes de submissão às normas, ou ainda até aos estudos sobre o impacto de diferentes graus de penalização. Conclui-se que os efeitos da informação normativa são muito reduzidos e são intrinsecamente dependentes da observação do comportamento dos outros condutores. OS resultados a seguir apresentados sugerem que a percepção imediata de risco e transgressão, que pode ser aumentada através de sistemas de aviso colocados nos automóveis, tende a ser mais eficaz no aumento da submissão às normas.

This paper reviews a range of studies which have sought to increase drivers’ compliance with the traffic law. These range from: studies which have manipulated levels of enforcement to studies which have investigated the effects of providing drivers with information about current levels of compliance, to studies which have sought to assess the impact of different levels of penalty. It is concluded that the effects of normative information are weak and inherently dependent on the actual behaviour of other drivers. The results presented further suggest that the risk of apprehension, which may be augmented by provision of in-car warnings, is most likely to be effective in increasing compliance.
