Impact of the graduated driver licensing program in Nova
Scotia
Report from the Traffic Injury Research Foundation
Results
The evaluation involved a series of increasingly refined analyses to determine
the extent to which the graduated licensing program in Nova Scotia, or other
competing variables, accounted for changes in all collisions (i.e., fatal,
injury and property damage) as well as those involving only casualties (i.e.,
fatal and injuring producing) among the target group. Simple pre-post comparisons
and time series designs examined collisions among 16- and 17-year-old drivers
before and after the implementation of the program. Further pre-post comparisons
focused on the collision rates of all novices, regardless of age.
