| Summary |
This executive summary highlights some of the more significant findings from the report, 'In the driver's seat II: beyond the early driving years.' This is the second report from The Young Drivers Study, which uses longitudinal data from the Australian Temperament Project to identify trends in young adult driving behaviour. It presents survey findings from young drivers aged 23-24, with comparisons with results from the first report, where the drivers were aged 19-20. The report explores the consistency of driving behaviours over time; drink driving or substance use and risky behaviour; overlaps between crash involvement, high-level speeding and fatigued driving; the influence of parents on young people's car purchases; and links between personal characteristics and driving behaviours |
