Abstract

The present volume presents the results of an experiment conducted to determine if young drivers(males aged 18-24) perceive the risk of accident involvement differently from experienced drivers (males aged 38-50). The results show that young drivers do perceive the risk of accident involvement differently than do experienced drivers. The results of this study suggest the increasing the perception of risk of an accident for younger drivers would be helpful in reducing risk taking behaviour.
