Are you a new teenage driver, or do you know one? Want to help test technologies to improve teen driving?
Teenage drivers between the ages of 16 and 18, and their parents, are invited to consider participating in a pilot study. Teens in King and Snohomish Counties who have smart phones, regular access to a family car, and a recent driver’s license may be eligible. We are studying two new devices for safer driving. Enrolled teens will be paid $180 (in gas or gift cards) for participating over six months. Participation is voluntary.
Eligibility requirements:
-Drivers license (received between September 2011 and October 2012)
-Smart phone with data plan and ability to download apps (cannot use iPhones or Windows 7 phones)
-Access to a car at least three times a week
