Abstract

Speeding is still a key challenge for road safety. The Danish Road Directorate estimates that in about half of all road fatalities excessive speed is a factor. This calls for interventions against speeding.
The understanding of what is on the car driver’s mind when speeding is crucial for the prevention of crashes. Large scale, high-quality experiments challenging the mind set of speeding car drivers are however lacking.

Our aim was (1) to develop an online intervention teaching car drivers, having experienced a recent speeding ticket, about road safety and (2) evaluate the effect of this intervention on future speeding offences in a randomized nationwide controlled trial approaching all private car speed offenders in Denmark.
