Other High-Risk Factors for Young Drivers--How Graduated Licensing Does, Doesn't, or Could Address Them.
Ferguson, Susan A.
Journal of Safety Research, v34 n1 supp p71-77 2003
Examines the risk factors underlying the high crash rates of newly licensed drivers and assesses the extent to which existing graduated driver-licensing programs address these risks. Discusses such risks as driver fatigue, not using seat belts, high speeds, high-powered vehicles, and in-vehicle distractions. (Contains 66 references.) (AUTHOR/WFA)
