Wayne Barnes, President & CEO, Goodyear Canada commented: "As Canada's leading tire brand, Goodyear has been a long-time advocate of safe practices on the road. Our goal with the Goodyear Safety Survey was to find out what's on the minds of Canadians when it comes to road safety, and who they feel should and shouldn't be behind the wheel."
Goodyear is a leading proponent of safe driving, and is the number one choice of tires for school buses, ambulances and police cars. The telephone survey was conducted by Thompson Lightstone & Company in July 2002 with a representative sample of 1,000 Canadians. The margin of error is plus/minus 3.1% and is accurate 19 times out of 20.
