Abstract
This paper looks at the history of driver education and discusses the findings from two recent studies that have shown a safety effect for young drivers who have completed driver education programs. The two studies are: 1) Evaluation of Beginner Driver Education Programs: Studies in Manitoba and Oregon by Mayhew, Marcoux, Wood, Simpson, Vanlaar, Lonero, and Clinton (2014); and 2) Driver Education and Teen Crashes and Violations In The First Two Years Of Driving In a Graduated Driver Licensing System by Shell and Newman (2015).
