On-road driving before gaining a valid license (prelicense driving) represents a risk for all road users. Prelicense driving among young people who obtained a provisional license within an enhanced graduated driver licensing program in Queensland, Australia, was investigated.
Recently licensed drivers (n = 1032) aged 17 to 19 years (M = 17.54) completed a survey exploring their driving experiences while on their learner's license. Six months later, 355 of these drivers completed the same survey exploring their experiences on their provisional (intermediate) license.
Twelve percent of participants reported prelicense driving. Prelicense drivers reported significantly more risky driving as learners and provisional drivers.
Prelicense drivers not only place themselves and other road users at risk at the time but also continue to do so through their subsequent risky driving. Prelicense driving should be discouraged, and parents should be encouraged to monitor car use and the driving behavior of their children.
在获得有效驾照之前（预驾照驾驶）在所有道路使用者中都存在风险。本研究调查了澳大利亚昆士兰州强化驾照分级计划中获得临时驾照的年轻人的预驾照驾驶情况。
1032 名年龄在 17 至 19 岁（M=17.54）的新获得驾照的驾驶员完成了一项调查，该调查探索了他们在学习驾照期间的驾驶经验。六个月后，其中 355 名驾驶员完成了相同的调查，探索了他们在临时（中级）驾照期间的驾驶经验。
12%的参与者报告有预驾照驾驶。预驾照驾驶员报告称，在学习驾照和临时驾照阶段的驾驶风险显著更高。
预驾照驾驶员不仅在当时使自己和其他道路使用者处于危险之中，而且通过随后的危险驾驶继续这样做。应劝阻预驾照驾驶，鼓励父母监督子女的汽车使用和驾驶行为。
