The bravado and Foolhardy Ness of adolescent Drivers is All too often a valid portrayal of How they see themselves and How they feel they should be seen by added. The development of Safe behaviour will come from an under standing of psychological Moti vation and helping individuals to develop self concepts establish self esteem and develop life styles in which Safe behaviour will have the same psychological significance that dangerous behaviour now too often holds said.
