4 Key facts In 2015 young drivers aged were involved in 90 fatal traffic crashes, 579 serious injury crashes and 2,608 minor injury crashes. Of these crashes, the year-old drivers had the primary responsibility 1 in 72 of the fatal crashes, 464 of the serious injury crashes and 1,993 of the minor injury crashes. These crashes resulted in 80 deaths, 548 serious injuries and 2,760 minor injuries. 2 The total social cost of the crashes in which year-old drivers had the primary responsibility was $951 million. This is 25 percent of the social cost associated with all injury crashes. Risk Figure 1 (from the New Zealand Household Travel Survey 3 ) shows that male drivers in the year age group are approximately eight times more likely to crash (per 100 million kilometres driven) than male drivers in the lowest risk age group of years. Female drivers aged are about six 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. 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. Fault/responsibility here only considers driver and rider factors contributing to the crash. There may also be road or system factors that contributed to the crash. 2 Definitions for fatal, serious and minor injuries and social cost are given in Terminology at the end of the fact sheet

5 Figure 1: Number of drivers involved in fatal or injury crashes per 100 million km driven (bars) and per 10,000 licence holders (lines), by age and gender ( ) Drivers involved in fatal or injury crashes per 100 million km driven (bars) Female Female Age group (years) Male Male Drivers involved in fatal or injury crashes per licence holders - annual average (lines) 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 4 percent of all licensed car drivers 4. Yet, between 2013 and 2015, year-old drivers accounted for 9 percent of all drivers involved in minor injury crashes, 9 percent of drivers in serious injury crashes, and 7 percent of drivers involved in fatal crashes (Figure 2). Similarly, year-old drivers make up approximately 9 percent of licensed car drivers but, between 2013 and 2015, they accounted for 15 percent of drivers involved in minor injury crashes, 14 percent of drivers in serious injury crashes, and 12 percent of drivers involved in fatal crashes (Figure 2). Of all young drivers (15 24 years old) involved in fatal crashes between 2013 and 2015, 79 percent were male. Males accounted for 70 percent of young drivers involved in serious injury crashes and 63 percent of those involved in minor injury crashes over the same period. 4 The car licence population consists of drivers with full, restricted or learner car licences. (Motor Vehicle Crashes in New Zealand, 2015) 5

This is due to the typically high speeds on these roads, which results in a higher impact speed if a crash occurs.

Since 1985 there has been an 74 percent reduction in the number of year old car drivers involved in fatal crashes, and a 90 percent reduction in the number of motorcycle riders in the same age group. Figure 5: year old drivers involved in fatal crashes by vehicle type ( ) 160 Fatal crashes Car/Van Motorcycle Year Since 1985 there has been a 65 percent reduction in the number of year old car drivers involved in fatal crashes, and an 91 percent reduction in the number of motorcycle riders in the same age group involved in fatal crashes. 9

10 Who dies in crashes with young drivers? People in the year old age group are most likely to die in fatal crashes in which young drivers of a similar age have the primary responsibility. Between 2013 and 2015, 71 percent of the passengers who died in vehicles driven by young at-fault drivers were in the year old age group.

11 Young drivers tend to be disproportionately represented in fatal crashes at night. For example, between 2013 and 2015, 45 percent of night-time crashes and over 50 percent of fatal crashes occurring on Friday nights involved a young driver, whereas only 20 percent of daytime fatal crashes involved a young driver. Who was at fault? Figure 6: Young driver fault in crashes ( ) Single vehicle, no young driver fault identified, 1% Single vehicle, young driver at fault, 35% Multi vehicle, young driver some responsibility, 4% Multi vehicle, no young driver fault identified, 19% Multi vehicle, young driver primary responsibility, 41% A young driver has the primary responsibility 5 for about three-quarters (76%) of all the crashes involving young drivers. A young driver has the primary responsibility for about two-thirds (65%) of the crashes that also involve other road users. Crash factors Alcohol/drugs, losing control and speed are the major contributing factors for young drivers involved in fatal crashes. Over half (53%) the young drivers involved in fatal crashes had alcohol/drugs and/or speed identified as factors contributing to the crash. Young drivers are over twice as likely to have speed or alcohol as a factor than drivers over the age of Primary responsibility (fault) 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. Fault/responsibility here only considers driver and rider factors contributing to the crash. There may also be road or system factors that contributed to the crash. 11

13 Types of crash Crashes which involve drivers losing control of their vehicles (see lost control/off road on the graph below) are a major feature in crashes involving young drivers. Forty percent of year-old drivers involved in fatal crashes were in single-vehicle loss of control or run off road crashes, compared with 20 percent for older drivers. In addition, many of the head-on crashes also involve drivers losing control of their vehicles.

14 Licence status of young drivers in fatal crashes The following graphs show the licence status of year-old drivers involved in fatal crashes. Restricted and learner licence holders make up a large proportion of these drivers; 53 percent for year olds and 33 percent for year olds. A similar pattern occurs for year-old drivers involved in injury crashes. This reflects the high number of learner and restricted licence holders in this age group.

15 Terminology Fatal injuries: injuries that result in death within 30 days of the crash. Serious injuries: fractures, concussions, internal injuries, crushings, severe cuts and lacerations, several general shock necessitating medical treatment and any other injury involving removal to and detention in hospital. Minor injuries: injuries of a minor nature such as sprains and bruises. Social cost: a measure of the total cost of road crashes to the nation. It includes: loss of life and life quality; loss of productivity; and medical, legal, court, and property damage costs. Crash fault/responsibility: Primary responsibility (at-fault) 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. Fault/responsibility here only considers driver and rider factors contributing to the crash. There may also be road or system factors that contributed to the crash. 15
