Abstract
Licensing systems play an important role in developing safe drivers and are a crucial part of keeping novice drivers safe while they learn to drive. This project benchmarked the New Zealand graduated licensing system (GLS) against those in other comparable high performing jurisdictions to identify any gaps between the New Zealand approach and best practice. A small number of targeted consultations were undertaken with driver licensing stakeholders in other international jurisdictions across Australia, Europe, and the United States to explore their experiences with elements of the licensing system that are not in place in New Zealand. This analysis combined with a brief review of relevant research literature identified a number of evidence-based licensing measures that could improve the New Zealand novice driver licensing system.
