“…Although this is the first study to examine the mediating role of driving self-efficacy on the relationship between personality traits and mobile phone use while driving, the findings of the present study were evidenced by some relevant studies. More closely, similar to the driving self-efficacy used in current study, a study identified biased self-efficacy perceptions mediated the effects of sensation seeking on drunk driving (González-Iglesias et al, 2014). Additionally, some studies provided evidence that there were some other predispositional attitudes towards driving behaviors, including traffic safety climate (Q.…”

“…Moreover, research has documented that biased self-efficacy mediates the relationship between certain personality trait and specific risky driving behavior (González-Iglesias, Gómez-Fraguela, & Luengo, 2014). We are convinced that this may also be reasonable for mobile phone use while driving.…”

“…On the other hand, in contrast to the results of Liu et al, our results show that young drivers are well informed about the impact of alcohol on road traffic safety (37%: northern area—39%, southern area—36%) ( 14 ). Although the data on drunk driving is based on self- reports (where there is a possibility that some respondents are not completely honest), the authors of numerous studies believe that this method is relevant for research ( 31 – 34 ). The results on drunk driving which were obtained in this study are in accordance with the results of similar studies abroad, but also with studies in the country where the research was conducted ( 13–15 , 35 , 36 ).…”

Driving under the influence of alcohol has been recognized as a significant contributing factor to the occurrence of one out of four road traffic crashes. Young drivers are acknowledged as a particularly hazardous group of road users because of insufficient driving experience, but also because of unsafe behavior while behind the wheel, which encompasses driving under the influence of alcohol. The primary aim of this study was to examine the perception of a campaign about driving under the influence of alcohol, while the secondary goal is to present the self-reported behavior and attitudes of young drivers about driving under the influence of alcohol in the Republic of Serbia. Data were collected through a questionnaire created by a multidisciplinary team of experts in the fields of traffic engineering, psychology, and education. A total of 4,015 respondents participated in the study, aged from 16 to 30. The results show that younger respondents have a 1.89 times higher chance of remembering the road traffic safety campaign then older ones. In addition, respondents were 5.057 times more likely to perceive and remember campaign messages that have fewer words than campaign messages that have more words.

“…Selfefficacy is a significant predictor of behavioral intention and safe behavior, particularly with respect to speeding [65]. A study in Spain also reported self-efficacy as a significant determinant of drunk driving [66]. Compared with other factors, personal factors have the greatest effects on drivers' engagement in HRBs and hence, educational interventions are essential to modify drivers' beliefs and perceptions.…”

Exploring the facilitators and barriers to high-risk behaviors among school transportation drivers: a qualitative study

Background School transportation (ST) crashes are associated with serious adverse consequences, particularly for students in developing countries. High-risk behaviors (HRBs) of ST drivers are a major factor contributing to ST crashes. This study aimed at exploring the facilitators and barriers to HRBs among ST drivers. Methods This qualitative study was conducted in 2019–2020. Participants were ST drivers, students, parents, and school staff purposively selected from Tehran, Iran. Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions and were concurrently analyzed through conventional content analysis. Findings Participants were fifteen ST drivers with a mean age of 45 ± 10.2 years and 24 students, parents, and school staff with a mean age of 28.62 ± 16.08 years. The facilitators and barriers to HRBs came into five main categories, namely previous experiences of HRBs, perceived gains and risks of HRBs, motivating and inhibiting feelings and emotions, positive and negative subjective norms, and perceived mastery in driving. Conclusion A wide range of facilitators and barriers can affect HRBs among ST drivers. Strategies for preventing HRBs among ST drivers should be multidimensional and individualized and should focus on strengthening the barriers and removing the facilitators to HRBs.
