Abstract

Survey data on large trucks involved in fatal accidents and on the travel of large trucks provide estimates of fatal accident involvement rates by driver age. The analysis is focused on the implications of lowering the minimum age for drivers of commercial trucks from 21 to 19 years. Fatal accident involvement rates for drivers of large trucks were found to increase with decreasing driver age.
