The issue of drivers’ risky behavior came into people’s attention due to the effects that such behavior constantly produce: road accidents, physical and psychological trauma, frequent violations of the law, chaos in traffic, repair costs, etc. The frequency of the driving style that involves risky behavior is observed from the very beginning of the driving activity of young drivers, who obtain their driving license as teenagers, from 16 to 18 years old in most countries, the age that corresponds to the period of adolescence. From a psychological point of view, this is the stage of life that is considered to be the most complex, as a series of physical, emotional and social changes take place. The adolescent faces many unknowns related to the transition to adulthood, thus, period of biological matureness directly influences four areas of psychosocial functioning: cognition, perception of one’s own person, perception of the social environment and social values. Most accidents involving young drivers are attributed to driving errors that can be associated with lack of experience, inattention, inadequate visual processing and failure to recognize dangers, speed not adapted to road conditions and errors committed in emergency situations. Young drivers tend to minimize their risk and vulnerability to accidents and this often-unrealistic subjective perception of their risk is a contributing factor to the increased number of accidents. Consequently, it is very important to pay more attention to the drivers at this specific age period, because here two emotionally charged variables overlap: the age characterized by crises, challenges, changes and the activity of driving a vehicle that requires accuracy and mastery of numerous skills, upon which the driver's safety and the lives of those around him essentially depend.
