A comparison of licensed driver counts from the Federal Highway Administration and driver licensing agencies in 11 states
Conclusions: These findings highlight the continued concern regarding the accuracy of licensed driver counts from the FHWA and extend previous studies by illustrating the impact of using FHWA counts on statistical inference. We recommend against using these data for traffic safety research or policy evaluation. Nevertheless, we acknowledge the need for a centralized, easily accessible database for licensed driver data.PMID:38165202 | DOI:10.1080/15389588.2023.2278412
