4.4 Research project on vehicle safety: Research Cycle 1.2Research Team: Judy Lovell, Ada Lechleitner, Mark Inkamala, Anna Marie Armstrong, Roslyn Raberabera, RachelKantawara, Dion DhamarranydjiRoslyn Raberabera and Anna MarieArmstrong (right)Mark Inkamala (left) runs focus groupwith Tjuwanpa RangersBackyard photograph for focus group4.4.1 Data collectionThis research cycle made use of two data collection methods – photo elicitation and focus groups – that workedtogether to provide a rich qualitative response to the guiding research questions. The researchers asked smallgroups of people to discuss photos in light of the findings of the Safe Driving Survey (above, and Lovell et al. 2011).The researchers facilitated the discussion to cover key points. The benefit of the method was the flow ofconversation that represented layers of information from participants. The researchers guided the conversationsby bringing the group back to the focus on the topic using the photos or the key questions as needed. The methodrecords detail, allowing the depth of the thinking and differences of opinion in each group to be captured as audiorecorded data. This is called a focus group.In order to start the focus group with everyone looking closely at the same everyday scenes, the researchers tookphotographs around the community that illustrated the focus of the discussion. The photos were used with eachgroup, accompanied by the questions: ‘What do you see in these photos?’ and ‘What’s going on here?’ This is calledthe photo elicitation method (Kolb 2008), and can be used in focus groups, with other clusters of informants orwith individuals.The vehicle safety focus groups were run during August and September 2011 in response to the Safe drivingsurvey from May 2011, which questioned local people about their driving habits and concerns. From analysis ofthe surveys some findings were identified as subjects for further enquiry. The findings indicated important points:1. People will drive, if they have no other options.2. People want to drive safe vehicles.3. People want driver education and training at Ntaria.We learned that 45% of people surveyed suggested:1. Driving education and training is needed at Ntaria.2. Safe driving, driver fatigue, drink driving and license renewal programs are needed at Ntaria.3. Young drivers need more training and skill development opportunities at Ntaria.42 Final Report: Strengthening Community Research in Remote Service Delivery at Ntaria
In light of these results we asked the Ntaria police if they would be able to give us information about the trend invehicle-related offences and accidents in the financial year 2010–2011. We were given these statistics as ‘job’reports. Each record of a job may include more than one offence and more than one offender, but those details arenot recorded. The data from the Ntaria Police station should be read with this in mind.Ntaria police local statistics regarding traffic offences July 2010 to June 2011Traffic offences includes unlicensed, speeding, unregistered, uninsured, etc.Drunk driversCrashes4 uninjured, 1 injured, 1 disqualified, unregistered and driving under the influence (DUI)2 were awaiting results at the time of these statisticsFatality2 passed away1 seriously injuredThe total number of traffic related charges involving Ntaria residents with workforcecapacity for the period 1 July 2010 – 30 June 2011108 jobs33 jobs8 jobs1 job150 jobs5.30% 0.70%22%Drink DrivingTraffic OffencesCrashesFatalityThese Ntaria police statistics tell us that onthe main highway within a 50 km radius ofNtaria, 72% of charges between 1 July 2010and 30 June 2011 were related topreventable traffic offences.This includes unregistered orunroadworthy vehicles, unlicensed,disqualified drivers, or unsafe driving (seatbelt, speeding, etc.).72%We used these statistics to generatediscussion in the focus groups.The charts below describe the demographic details of the 19 people who participated in the three focus groupsheld during August and September 2011.6211NtariaTjuwunpaOtheroutstation19 people participated in the discussion: 9 men and 10women.This chart shows us where those people live.Final Report: Strengthening Community Research in Remote Service Delivery at Ntaria 43
