Studies have shown that teen drivers are at risk. IVOX wants to use DriverScore to help improve behavior at a young age, creating better drivers in the future and reducing the risk of accidents for teens.
According to the National Transportation Safety Board ("Most Wanted Transportation Safety Improvements," November 2007):
 
     
 
Motor vehicle crashes remain the leading cause of death for 15- to 20-year-olds.
From 1996 through 2005, almost 64,000 youth aged 15 to 20 died in traffic crashes—122 each week.
In 2004, teen drivers constituted only 6.3 % of licensed drivers, but were involved in 12.6 % of all highway fatal crashes and 16 % of all police-reported crashes.
The risk of a crash involving a teenage driver increases with each additional teen passenger in the vehicle.
