1 Young drivers CRASH FACTSHEET November 2013 CRASH STATISTICS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2012 Prepared by the Ministry of Transport In 2012 young drivers aged were involved in 73 fatal traffic, 549 serious injury and 2,626 minor injury. Of these, the year-old drivers had the primary responsibility 1 in 55 of the fatal, 436 of the serious injury and 2,044 of the minor injury. These resulted in 68 deaths, 567 serious injuries and 2,830 minor injuries. 2 The total social cost of the in which year-old drivers had the primary responsibility was $755 million. This is 24 percent of the social cost associated with all injury. The graph below (from the New Zealand Household Travel Survey 3 ) shows that male drivers in the year age group are approximately nine times more likely to crash (per 100 million kilometres driven) than male drivers in the lowest risk age group of years. Female drivers aged have a lower crash risk than males of the same age, but are still seven times more likely to crash (per 100 million kilometres driven) than female drivers in the lowest risk group of year-olds. Drivers in the year-old age group are approximately three to four times more likely to crash than the lowest risk group of the same gender. Number of drivers involved in fatal or injury per 100 million km driven (bars) and per licence holders (lines), by age and gender ( ) Drivers involved in fatal/injury per 100 million km driven (bars) Female Male Female Male Age group (years) Drivers involved in fatal or injury per licence holders - annual average (lines) 1 The determination of primary responsibility for a crash is based on the crash movements and crash cause factors assigned in the Crash Analysis System. It is not based on legal liability or court conviction. 2 Definitions for fatal, serious and minor injuries and social cost are given in Terminology at the end of the fact sheet. 3
2 As the graphs below illustrate, young drivers tend to be over-represented in all types of crash. Recent figures show that year-old drivers make up just 5 percent of all licensed car drivers 4. Yet, between 2010 and 2012, year-old drivers accounted for 12 percent of all drivers involved in minor injury, 11 percent of drivers in serious injury, and 9 percent of drivers involved in fatal. Similarly, year-old drivers make up approximately 9 percent of licensed car drivers but, between 2010 and 2012, they accounted for 15 percent of drivers involved in minor injury, 14 percent of drivers in serious injury, and 14 percent of drivers involved in fatal. Of all young drivers (15 24 years old) involved in fatal between 2010 and 2012, 78 percent were male. Males accounted for 69 percent of young drivers involved in serious injury and 61 percent of those involved in minor injury over the same period. Young drivers as a proportion of all crash involved drivers ( ) Minor Crash severity Serious Fatal 0% 5% 10% 15% Percentage years years Percentage of all fatal that involve young drivers ( ) Age group (years) years years Urban Open road 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% Percentage of fatal Note: This graph includes drivers of all types of motorised vehicle, including motorcycles. A high proportion of fatal involving young drivers (15 24 years old) occur on the open road. This is due to the typically high speeds on these roads, which results in a higher impact speed if a crash occurs. Thirty-two percent of all fatal involve a driver between the ages of 15 and The car licence population consists of drivers with full, restricted or learner car licences. (Motor Vehicle Crashes in New Zealand, 2012)

4 Vehicle type for young drivers involved in fatal year old drivers involved in fatal by vehicle type ( ) Fatal Car/Van Motorcycle Since 1985 there has been an 82 percent reduction in the number of year-old car drivers involved in fatal, and a 97 percent reduction in the number of motorcycle riders in the same age group. Year year old drivers involved in fatal by vehicle type ( ) Car/Van Motorcycle Fatal Since 1985 there has been a 69 percent reduction in the number of year-old car drivers involved in fatal, and an 89 percent reduction in the number of motorcycle riders in the same age group involved in fatal Most of that drop occurred prior to Year
5 Who dies? People in the year-old age group are most likely to die in fatal in which young drivers of a similar age have the primary responsibility. Between 2010 and 2012, approximately 72 percent of the passengers who died in vehicles driven by young at-fault drivers were in the year-old age group. Deaths in where year-old drivers were at fault 5 ( ) Age At-fault drivers At-fault drivers passengers Other road users Unknown Total Note: The table includes drivers of all types of motorised vehicle, including motorcycles. When do young driver occur? Young drivers tend to be disproportionately represented in fatal at night. For example, between 2010 and 2012, over 50 percent of fatal occurring on Friday and Saturday nights involved a young driver, whereas only 26 percent of daytime fatal involved a young driver.

6 Types of crash Driver contribution to fatal ( ), by age group year olds 25 + years old Lost control Too fast for conditions Alcohol Inexperience Inattention or attention diverted Driver tired or fell asleep Failed to keep left Too far left Showing off Failed to give way Alcohol/drugs, losing control and speed are the major contributing factors for young drivers involved in fatal. Young drivers are more than twice as likely to have speed or alcohol as a factor than drivers over the age of 25.

Thirty-six percent of year-old drivers involved in fatal were in single-vehicle loss of control or run off road, compared with 23 percent for older drivers. In addition, many of the head-on also involve drivers losing control of their vehicles.

7 Licence status of young drivers in fatal The pie graphs below show the licence status of year-old drivers involved in fatal. Restricted and learner licence holders make up a large proportion of these drivers. A similar pattern occurs for year-old drivers involved in injury. This reflects the high number of learner and restricted licence holders in this age group. Licence status of year old drivers involved in fatal ( ) Overseas, 5% Disqualified / Forbidden, 3% Full, 31% Never licensed, 15% Learner, 12% Unknown / other, 4% Restricted, 30% Licence status of year old drivers involved in fatal ( ) Overseas, 8% Disqualified / Forbidden, 7% Never licensed, 2% Full, 41% Unknown / other, 9% Learner, 10% Restricted, 23% Note: Unknown/other includes drivers with an expired, unknown or wrong licence class.
