Young Drivers

The percentage of crashes involving young drivers between the ages 15 to 20 has not changed significantly during the past 19 years. Over the next 15 years, there will be an increase in "high risk" teen and young adult drivers.

OUR GOALS
  • Reduce the under 21 year old crash rate by 2.54% by 2013.
  • Reduce the fatality rate average of under 21 year old drivers to .57 by 2013.
