Abstract

Referring to the high accident risk of young people in traffic, especially due to the role of driven speed, the Austria "Momo"-project was conducted. Aim of this pilot project directed to 17-18 years old pupils was to teach another mobility education - a sort of eco-driving. The name "intelligent.fahren" for this type of driving was created by pupils and driving teachers participating in this project. Intelligent driving means taking into account known effects of speed and driving style on economy, ecology and traffic safety. The main results of this pilot project are presented and recommendations for promoting this driving style in education and training of driving teachers, teachers, parents and young people before and while trying to get a driving license are discussed. For the covering abstract see ITRD E123193.
