Abstract
It is widely known that young drivers are over-represented in the crash data for reasons such as risk perception and acceptance, age, gender, experience, exposure, and social contexts. The current mitigations implemented to address this issue consist mainly of graduated driver’s licenses and parental involvement programs. However, as technology begins to find its way into transportation in the form of advanced driver assistance systems, there is a need to understand whether these technologies will be a benefit or a detriment to young novice drivers. This effort investigates the reactions of young novice drivers to a control intervention lane departure warning. The results show less urgent reactions to the warning from novice drivers compared to the older more experienced drivers tested. Young novice males were found to have degraded performance compared to their novice female peers as well as older more experienced male drivers. This study provides useful insights concerning the necessary investigations of effects of advanced driver assistance systems on young novice drivers and the associated young driver safety epidemic.
