Abstract

Novice drivers are at greater risk of crashing on the road than more experienced drivers. One reason for this is that they have not yet developed, through experience, certain perceptual and cognitive skills that are critical in reducing their crash risk. In late 1995 the Monash University Accident Research Centre commenced a program of simulator research which recently culminated in the development of a CD-ROM based training product for accelerating in young novice drivers the development of risk perception, attentional control and time-sharing skills. This paper reviews the outcomes of this research program and describes the development of the CDROM product deriving from the research. (Author/publisher)
