The results from this study suggest that belted female drivers are more susceptible to injuries (47%–71%; P < .05) compared with belted male drivers when involved in a comparable motor vehicle crash.
In the present study, we investigated gender-related effects on road safety attitudes in 2681 young drivers (1458 males, 54.4%; aged 18–22) who filled out several scales assessing attitudes toward road safety issues, driving behavior in specific hypothetical situations, accident risk perception, and concerns about such a risk.
Urban safety plays an crucial role in the daily lives of residents (Ceccato and Lukyte, 2011).People seek to reside in secure environments that provide them with a sense of safety and protect them from potential dangers (Berg et al., 2019).Conversely, areas with lower safety perceptions can restrict individuals' freedom and limit their activities in public spaces (Ratnayake, 2013), negatively ...
Many more men than women die each year in motor vehicle crashes. Men typically drive more miles than women and are more likely to engage in risky driving practices, including not using seat belts, driving while impaired by alcohol and speeding.
These differences in men's and women's risk of crash and injury signal the need for better understanding of how sex and/or gender may contribute to risk of crash and injury across the life-course. Keywords: Young driver, Novice driver, Sex disaggregated, Crash, Road injury, Gender.
1 gru 2010 · For the current study investigating the influence of vehicle colour on crash risk, use of induced exposure methods required identification of a crash type with risk of occurrence unaffected by vehicle colour as well as crash types with risk of occurrence potentially dependent on vehicle colour.
