Abstract

In the U.S., motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for young drivers, accounting for approximately one third of all deaths among individuals aged 15–19 years.1 Teenage drivers are not only a risk to themselves, they are responsible for the largest proportion of deaths among their own passengers, occupants of other vehicles, and pedestrians and cyclists relative to any other age group.2 Injuries and deaths resulting from crashes involving a teenage driver are responsible for an estimated $4.6 billion in lifetime medical costs and productivity losses.
