The Control Yuan is asking foreigners living here in Taiwan to complete a
questionnaire about how well they believe the public sector is working to
improve road safety.

The survey is available in English, Chinese, Tagalog, Bahasa Indonesia,
Vietnamese and Thai and can be filled out anonymously.

According to Control Yuan member Yeh Da-hua, the questionnaire has been
launched to gain a deeper understanding of the transportation challenges
faced by foreigners and those who fill it out can share their experiences and
make suggestions.

The questionnaire asks whether respondents understand English instructions in
the cities or counties where they live, and whether they think such
translations are necessary.

One question asks respondents to rate drivers' awareness of pedestrians on a
scale of one to five.

The survey also seeks their views on local public transportation and how much
more information on safety measures they believe is needed.

Foreigners have until May 23 to submit the questionnaire.
