This paper studies the effectiveness of intensive driving courses; both in driving test success and safe driving after passing the driving test. The so-called intensive driving course (IDC) consists of a limited number of consecutive days in which the learner driver takes driving lessons all day long; and is different from traditional training in which lessons are spread out over several months and in which learners take one or two driving lessons of approximately 1 h each per week. Our study indicates that--in the first two years of their driving career--IDC drivers (n=35) reported an incident significantly more often (43%) than 351 drivers who obtained their driving licence after traditional training (26%). Our study also indicates that the IDC drivers underwent almost the same number of training hours as the drivers who had traditional training, although spacing of these hours was different. There was no difference in the number of attempts to pass the driving test. We did not find any evidence that a self-selection bias was responsible for the difference in reported number of incidents.
本文研究了强化驾驶课程的效果；既包括驾驶考试的成功率，也包括通过驾驶考试后的安全驾驶。所谓的强化驾驶课程（IDC）由有限的连续几天组成，在这几天中，学员驾驶员全天接受驾驶课程；与传统培训不同，传统培训将课程分散在几个月内进行，学员每周接受一到两次大约 1 小时的驾驶课程。我们的研究表明，在他们的驾驶生涯的头两年，IDc 驾驶员（n=35）报告事故的频率明显更高（43%），而 351 名通过传统培训获得驾驶执照的驾驶员报告事故的频率为 26%。我们的研究还表明，IDc 驾驶员接受的培训小时数与接受传统培训的驾驶员几乎相同，尽管培训时间的间隔不同。通过驾驶考试的尝试次数没有差异。我们没有发现任何证据表明自我选择偏差是导致报告事故数量差异的原因。
