Identification of drivers’ driving habits and shift schedule correction for vehicles with automatic transmission:
TL;DR: The gear shift correction control strategy based on driving habit recognition fully meets the different requirements of different drivers for the gearshift performance of vehicles and improves the intelligence degree of automatic transmission of vehicles.

Analyzing the Effect of Distractions and Impairments on Young Driver Safety Using Naturalistic Driving Study Data
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used naturalistic driving study (NDS) data to examine the safety of young drivers in the age group of 16-19 years and found that non-driving activities such as cell phone use, external distraction, food and drink intake, personal hygiene, and reaching and handling objects in the vehicle increase the possibility of involvement in a safety critical event.

Driving Simulator as a Tool for Reaction Time Measurement
TL;DR: The reaction times of a driver were measured in a driving simulator environment to evaluate if gender, practice, and alcohol, statistically significantly affect the reaction time and on drinking before driving for a smaller number of drivers.

Parent Opinions of Automated Vehicles and Young Driver Mobility
TL;DR: In this article , parents were asked about their general opinions of AV as well as several questions regarding their willingness to transport their teenagers in an AV unattended, and the results indicated that factors such as early adopter status, the potential to delay teenager licensing, and perceived safety were related to parent willingness.

Changes in collision rates among novice drivers during the first months of driving.
TL;DR: It was found that crash rates drop most dramatically during the first 6 months of driving, and a graduated driver licensing system is identified as an effective method for ensuring that this development takes place in a more forgiving environment.

Carrying Passengers as a Risk Factor for Crashes Fatal to 16- and 17-Year-Old Drivers
TL;DR: The data indicate that the risk of fatal injury for a 16- or 17-year-old driver increases with the number of passengers, which supports inclusion of restrictions on carrying passengers in graduated licensing systems for young drivers.

Alcohol-related relative risk of driver fatalities and driver involvement in fatal crashes in relation to driver age and gender: an update using 1996 data.
TL;DR: This is the first study that systematically estimated relative risk for drink-drivers with BACs between 0.08% and 0.10% (these relative risk estimates apply to BAC range midpoints at 0.09%.) the results clearly show that drivers with a BAC under 0.

Driving experience, crashes and traffic citations of teenage beginning drivers
TL;DR: Self-reported crash involvements and citations were examined for each teenager's first year of licensure and first 3500 miles driven to find male gender, a lower GPA and living in a rural area were associated with a higher citation rate.

The situational risks of young drivers: the influence of passengers, time of day and day of week on accident rates
TL;DR: The results indicate that the accident involvement rates of 16-19 year old drivers are higher than those of 20-24 and 25-59 year olds in all situations that were examined, but that they were disproportionately high on weekends, at nighttime and with passengers.
