青少年作为司机和机动车乘客的人均死亡率远远超过其他所有年龄段的人。大多数关于青少年车祸的研究都集中在青少年司机身上，尽管作为乘客和司机的青少年死亡人数大致相同。1978年，在青少年司机驾驶的车辆上，所有致命受伤的青少年乘客中有63%受伤：在青少年司机驾驶的车辆中，致命受伤的乘客中有72%是青少年。一半的青少年乘客死亡发生在夜间的撞车事故中。讨论了减少青少年车祸死亡的可能方法。这些措施包括限制青少年驾驶；禁止青少年司机运送青少年乘客；更多地实施碰撞包装技术；清理高速公路和路边的危险，以及法律要求青少年使用安全带。
Teenagers far exceed all other ages in fatalitiesper capitaboth as drivers and as passengers in motor vehicles. Most studies of vehicle crashes involving teenagers focus on teenage drivers, despite the fact that the numbers of teenage deaths as passengers and as drivers are about equal. In 1978, 63% of all fatally injured teenage passengers sustained their injuries in vehicles driven by teenage drivers: 72% of the passengers fatally injured in vehicles driven by teenage drivers were teenagers. Half of the teenage passenger deaths occurred in nighttime crashes. Possible ways to reduce the crash deaths of teenagers are discussed. These include restricting the driving of teenagers; prohibiting teenage drivers from transporting teenage passengers; greater implementation of crash packaging technologies; cleaning up highway and roadside hazards, and laws requiring seat belt use by teenagers.
