Description:"Young workers - those age 16-24 - are developing their driving skills and gaining experience. Due to inexperience they may be less likely than older drivers to recognize and respond to traffic risks. Young drivers have the highest crash rate, based on miles driven, in the general population. Employers and parents/guardians can play an important role in keeping young drivers safe on the road. This fact sheet gives information on workplace driving laws that are important to follow so that young drivers may gain work experience under the safest conditions possible. It also provides recommendations on how to promote safe driving and prevent motor vehicle crashes among young workers who drive as part of their job." - NIOSHTIC-2
