This project investigated the effectiveness of:
- telematics
- use of a logbook
- extra hazard perception
- classroom-based education
- mentoring agreements
- Over 28,000 learner and novice drivers were recruited to take part in the research.
This research was commissioned by the Department for Transport (DfT) in 2019 and conducted by the Transport Research Laboratory (TRL).
