Causal Factors Associated with Higher Crash Rates Among Young Drivers that Delay Licensure (BTS-44)

The objective of this research is to identify causal factors associated with higher crash risk among young drivers that delay licensure until age 18+ and the effectiveness of driver training and-or GDL requirements in reducing this risk. To support this objective, the selected research agency will (1) conduct a broad national study of causal crash factors associated with higher crash risk and (2) conduct a scoping study for evaluating driver education and/or GDL requirements for a potential follow-on research effort.
