Abstract

This study focused on novice drivers. Novice drivers get involved in more traffic accidents than the other drivers because of less driving experience. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between driving confidence levels and speeding, drunken driving, and traffic accidents. 192 drivers responded driving confidence levels questionnaire and driving experience items. ‘Circumstance Insensibility’, ‘Unsafe Driving’, ‘Incautious Driving’, and ‘Self-efficacy of Driving’ had significant relations with speeding in novice divers group. Especially, ‘Circumstance Insensibility’ showed a significant relation with speeding, drunken driving and traffic accidents. In the result of path analysis, driving confidence levels explained 22% of the speeding, 12% of the drunken driving and 21% of the traffic accidents in novice drivers group. ‘Circumstance Insensibility’ was most effective for traffic accidents of novice drivers. We verified that 'Self-efficacy of Driving' affects on traffic accidents via speeding.
