      • Pedestrian Traffic Fatalities by State

      “Whether you start driving at 16, 26 or 46,” GHSA's Pam Fischer says, “you’re still inexperienced.” That’s why graduated licensing exists in the first place — to put up guardrails around new drivers during their most risky years of driving. But in nearly every state, graduated licensing requirements end at age 18. This means that older teens who delay licensing can hit the road with none of the restrictions and training they would have had just months earlier.

      GHSA has again partnered with Lyft to provide financial support for initiatives to promote ride-hailing rather than driving after consuming alcohol and/or other impairing substances. The State Highway Safety Offices in Ohio and Maryland each received $20,000 for fall campaigns designed to encourage people to make the responsible decision and leave the driving to someone who is sober.
