摘要: |
In the United States in 2004, 16-year-old drivers were involved in 957 fatal crashes that killed 1,111 people. Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) is an increasingly popular approach to reducing the excess risk of motor vehicle crashes for novice drivers. This study was undertaken to examine the fatal crash involvement rates of 16-year-old drivers in relation to implementation of GDL programs in the various States. GDL allows novice drivers to build experience incrementally before they are exposed to more hazardous driving situations. The first phase of GDL is a learner's period with supervised training. This is followed by an intermediate period where unsupervised driving is limited to less hazardous situations, and a final stage without restrictions. |
