Samenvatting
This new book examines graduated driver licensing (GDL) programs which have been widely credited with contributing to recent declines in teen crash fatalities. Evaluations of GDL have demonstrated a 20%-40% reduction in crash risk for the youngest drivers. GDL programs provide longer practice periods, limit driving under high-risk conditions for newly licensed drivers and require greater participation of parents in their teens' learning-to-drive process.
