Abstract:Speeding-related crashes continue to be serious problems in the United States. In 2022 there were 12,151 fatalities and an additional 300,595 people injured in speeding-related crashes. It is important to examine countermeasures that supplement the effective, but not fully-mitigating, enforcement on speed management To address this, this project used naturalistic driving data and self-report survey data to examine the effect of a brief speeding education course on driver speeding behavior, attitudes, and beliefs. The results showed that speeding education significantly reduced speeding frequency and duration in the longer-term; reduced speeding magnitude on roads with posted speed limits of 50 mph or higher; reduced speeding magnitude for younger drivers; and reduced speeding magnitude and duration for drivers who had no speeding citation history.
