“…Based on the information collected in the database, real-time and off-line feedback can be delivered to drivers. In this role, IVDR effects to reduce the occurrence of risky behaviors have been recognized in various studies [24,17].…”

“…Drivers are also categorized as green, yellow and red, according to the rate of their events: green drivers perform less than 20 events per 10 driving hours, yellow drivers perform between 20 and 50 events per 10 driving hours, and red drivers perform more than 50 events per 10 driving hours. For previous studies conducted with this system and further details, see Toledo et al [24] and Prato et al [23].…”

Purpose This paper aims to explore the driving behavior of young drivers few years after licensure based on two different evaluation approaches, which are used in a complementary manner. The evaluation was done with respect to driving exposure and trip safety. Methods The evaluation is based on two data collection approaches, which were compiled for the same trips: The first, In Vehicle Data Recorders (IVDR), which were installed in the young drivers' vehicles for a study period of 8 months. The second, Self-Reports (SR), which were provided by the young drivers at random times throughout the study period. These data have been compared and used in a complementary manner in order to provide an understanding of participants' driving behavior. Results The results show high correlation of driving exposure which was self-reported and these obtained from IVDR. The results also indicate that young drivers clearly perceived themselves as being safer drivers than they are, according to IVDR findings. In addition variables available only in the SR e.g., the presence of passenger in the car were found to affect the trip risk level. Conclusions The analysis obtained should be considered as exemplifying the potential of what may be accomplished and understood using these evaluation approaches.

“…In some of our previous studies, the usefulness of providing feedback from technology was explored, and it was found to be linked to a decrease in the events rate (Musicant and Lampel 2010;Toledo et al, 2008). The fourth-year study was therefore designed to test the effect of feedback as part of the follow-up.…”

“…Driving behavior and patterns throughout the year following licensure was explored in a previous study conducted between the years 2006-2008 with 120 novice young drivers in Israel. For a detailed description of this study and its results, see Lotan and Toledo (2007), Toledo et al (2008) and Prato et al (2010).…”

“…This advanced recording equipment was installed in the drivers' cars and, consequently, all trips made by the vehicle were monitored and information regarding trip characteristics and safety levels were stored and conveyed to participants. The application of IVDR to continuously monitor driving patterns and behavior, not only during a crash event, has been recognized in various studies (Toledo et al, 2008;Dingus et al, 2006).…”

Summary: This paper aims to evaluate how young drivers drive a few years after licensure. Driving behavior in the fourth year of driving is compared to that of the first year, based on data from In-Vehicle Data Recorders (IVDR). Young drivers' cars were equipped with the same IVDR systems in both study periods. The comparison revealed that, in general, driving patterns did not change significantly. The difference in risky behaviour between weekdays and weekends was more prominent in the fourth year than in the first year. In addition, an interesting improvement occurred at the end of the fourth-year study period. The analysis results obtained should also be considered an example of the potential of what may be done with this kind of data.
