The ability to drive is important to an individual's participation in modern society, as it enhances independence and social and economic opportunity. However, motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of injury-related death in the United States-and the leading cause of death among 15- to 24-year-olds. Thus, it is critical that we sequentially identify who may be at inherently higher crash risk and why their crash risk might be higher, with the ultimate goal of implementing comprehensive approaches to promote safe driving practices and to improve safe mobility.
驾驶能力对于个人参与现代社会至关重要,因为它增强了独立性以及社会和经济机会。然而,机动车事故是美国与伤害相关的死亡的主要原因,也是 15 至 24 岁人群的主要死因。因此,我们必须依次确定谁可能固有地面临更高的事故风险,以及为什么他们的事故风险可能更高,最终目标是实施全面的方法来促进安全驾驶行为并提高安全出行能力。
