目的:青少年新手司机的高撞车率被认为是由缺乏经验和危险的驾驶行为造成的,乘客,夜间驾驶和其他复杂的驾驶条件加剧了这一问题。本研究探讨了与碰撞/近碰撞和危险驾驶率新手青少年,包括驾驶在夜间与白天,乘客的存在和特点,和司机psychosocial factors.Method的相关因素:车辆的42个新许可的青少年司机配备了记录系统,收集数据的驾驶性能和乘员的特点,在他们的第一个18个月的执照。在四个测量时间收集调查数据。具有随机效应的泊松回归模型用于分析碰撞/接近碰撞和重力事件率升高(即,危险驾驶);事故率比率测量协变量的关联。结果:新手青少年中的碰撞/近碰撞率在成人乘客在场的情况下低75%,在有危险朋友的青少年中高96%。青少年危险驾驶与成年乘客低67%,低18%,与青少年乘客,20%,在夜间较早比白天低,和109%的青少年与相对更危险的friends.Conclusions:在成人乘客的存在下,风险驾驶的低利率表明,青少年可以驾驶在一个风险较小的方式。在那些有危险朋友的人中,危险驾驶的比例较高,这表明危险驾驶可能受到社会影响。(C)2011年青少年健康和医学协会。All rights reserved.
Purpose: The high crash rates of novice teenage drivers are thought to be caused by inexperience and risky driving behavior, exacerbated by passengers, driving at night, and other complex driving conditions. This study examined factors associated with crash/near crash and risky driving rates among novice teenagers, including driving at night versus day, passenger presence and characteristics, and driver psychosocial factors.Method: The vehicles of 42 newly licensed teenage drivers were equipped with recording systems that collected data on driving performance and occupant characteristics during their first 18 months of licensure. Survey data were collected at four measurement times. Poisson regression models with random effects were used to analyze crash/near crash and elevated gravitational force event rates (i.e., risky driving); incident rate ratios measured associations with covariates.Results: Crash/near crash rates among novice teenagers were 75% lower in the presence of adult passengers and 96% higher among those teenagers with risky friends. Teenage risky driving was 67% lower with adult passengers, 18% lower with teenage passengers; 20% lower during early night than day; and 109% higher among teens with relatively more risky friends.Conclusions: The low rate of risky driving in the presence of adult passengers suggests that teens can drive in a less risky manner. The higher rate of risky driving among those with risky friends suggests that risky driving may be socially influenced. (C) 2011 Society for Adolescent Health and Medicine. All rights reserved.
