Abstract:On April 27 and 28, 1993, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), U.S. Department of Transportation, assembled a panel of 11 national and international experts in traffic safety at the Belmont Conference Center, Elkridge, Maryland. The group was convened to identify research and development requirements for training designed to reduce young driver risk taking and improve decision making skills. The workshop was chaired by Michael Smith, Office of Program Development and Evaluation, NHTSA. This report summarizes the discussions that took place during the workshop. The discussions of the group covered several major areas: issues and definitions involved in analyzing young driver risk taking, training as a means of reducing risk taking, ways to restructure current driver training efforts, and the research and development requirements needed to improve driver training. /Abstract from report summary page/
