TL;DR: In this article, the authors make a theoretical contribution by investigating social cognitive factors and personality traits related to risky driver behaviour in a Turkish sample, and test three theoretical models by Structural Equation Modelling: (1) a model using risk perception and attitudes towards traffic safety to predict driver behaviour, (2) a Model which used normlessness and sensation-seeking traits to predict such behaviour, and (3) model which used both the social cognitive factor and personality trait to predict drivers' behavior.

TL;DR: The transition between secondary school and high school may constitute a risk period for establishing problem behaviours and interventions should target this period, and early intervention could promote the social status of healthy activities and reduce the status of deviant behaviours.
