📄 Full Report: View Analysis
## Overview
This project examines public perceptions of passenger safety in Ghana's public transportation system, focusing on the Ashanti Region (Kumasi), through a 2025 survey of 361 users. Findings reveal widespread negative safety feelings (67% unsafe/very unsafe), linked to inadequate regulations (76.5% poor enforcement), key crash factors like driver behavior (35.5%) and road conditions (29.1%), delayed emergency responses (71.2% >20 mins), and moderate campaign effectiveness (71.7% exposed, 86.5% high impact). Significant associations with demographics (e.g., age p=0.010, occupation p=0.024) and regulatory performance (OR=1.043, p 20 mins; 82.3% effective care but 86.1% inadequate resources; index mean=46.3; no significant predictors (R²=0.049).
- Campaigns: 71.7% exposed; posters/radio most effective (95.4%); 86.5% high effectiveness; improves perceptions (p=0.029); high behavioral intention (89.6%).
