• Pervious Study found the young and man has poor ability to estimating risk.

(Gregersen,1996)

• Older people has low commit violations, man more likely risk than women. (Parker et al.,1995,1992a,b)

Result

•ALL parameters reach significant value.

Result

Result

• Young people significant more attitude towards behavior than adult

(older).(t(144)=2.98,p<0.05) ,and subjective norm , perceived behavior control and behavioral intention.(t(144)=2.81,p<0.01 ,t(144)=2.91, p<0.05)

• The gender, status user, accident involvement were no significant different.

Result

Result

• Young people responses more violations

(t(144)=-4.82,p<0.01), error (t(144)=-

3.26,p<0.01), lapses (t(144)=-4.08,p<0.01).

• Men responses more violations than women (t(144)=3.77,p<0.001)

• The status user, accident involvement were no significant different.
