The Highway Safety Act of 1966 designates driver education and training as a mandatory requirement for State highway safety programs. In order to guide allocation of resources to driver education and training, information is required regarding its effectiveness as an accident countermeasure compared to other countermeasure programs. The study focused on the driver education program conducted in high schools. A review of prior evaluation studies validated the conclusion that there is no clear, consistent evidence adduced by public and verifiable methods, which allows any statement about the accident countermeasure efficacy of driver education--pro or con--to be accepted with confidence. On the basis of an explicitly stated frame of reference of currently accepted fundamental principles of sound evaluation, the inconclusiveness of existing evidence was analyzed. (Author)
