Abstract:Objective s To investigate the awareness of knowledge about traffic safety in primary and middle school students in Shenzhen City so as to provide evidence for further conducting health education concerning traffic safety among primary and middle school students in Shenzhen City. Methods A stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 5,000 students from 18 primary and middle schools in Shenzhen City from September to December,2015. A questionnaire about the students’ traffic safety evaluation and prevention in Shenzhen City was used to conduct this survey. Results About 79.31% of the surveyed students had the correct knowledge about the principle of road traffic, and the awareness rate of correct knowledge was significantly higher in high school students (87.04%) than in junior middle school students (83.48%) and pupils (68.01%), with statistically differences (χ2=21.210, P=0.002). The awareness rate of traffic safety knowledge and the correct cognitive rate of transportation were 71.66% and 57.19% respectively. As for the traffic behavior, 12.83% of the students had ridden a motorcycle, 5.88% had driven a car, and 44.64% weared seat belts each time while driving. Conclusions The knowledge of traffic safety among primary and middle school students in Shenzhen City,2015 is still relatively low, and unsafety traffic behavior still exists in some students. To reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents, it is necessary to strengthen the education about traffic safety knowledge and standardize the traffic safety behavior from the aspects of families, school education and public propaganda.
