“…It is noteworthy to mention speeding behaviour may not always be intentional. Unintentional speeding may occur due to, for example, lack of awareness of the current speed limit/travelling speed and not paying regular attention to the speedometer on the vehicle [45]. For the next major cause of fatal crash, i.e., driving under the influence of alcohol, the analysis revealed that it contributes to almost one-fifth of the total fatal crashes.…”

Other researchers state that personality and attitude factors also influence risky behavior when driving [15].In general, young drivers are less stable mentally and emotionally, increasing their risk of accidents [16,17].The accident rate at a young age is quite high compared to adult drivers, however this accident rate rises again for drivers aged 60-69 years [18].In general, young drivers' risks are influenced by road type, visibility conditions, gender [19], and speed [20].…”
