MnDOT has conducted an annual Omnibus Study since 1987 (except 2007)
All interviews were conducted using a computer assisted telephone interviewing system (CATI system). Interviews were administered by a professional interviewer as in previous years. Results are representative of the state’s population and are projectable to the state as a whole and to the 8-County Metro and Greater Minnesota areas. Margin of error is ±3.5% on the total base of 800 interviews at the 95% confidence level. A random digit dial calling sample was used to ensure that all households, including those with unlisted telephone numbers or those who recently moved, had the chance to participate. This was supplemented with a second, targeted age sample of 18 - 24 year olds to ensure that this age segment was properly represented. Respondents were screened to be 18 years of age or older and not work in a profession where knowledge of the research process or topic may present biased responses.
