N2  - Motor-vehicle crashes (MVCs) are the leading cause of death and disability for teenagers of driving age (16-19 years) in the United States. In addition, teenaged drivers account for a disproportionate number of MVCs compared with adult drivers (aged > or = 20 years). In Kentucky, teenagers are overrepresented in MVCs. To characterize the economic costs associated with MVCs involving teenaged drivers in Kentucky, the Kentucky Injury Prevention and Research Center conducted a cost analysis of data from MVCs involving such drivers for 1994. This report presents the findings of this analysis, which indicate that, during 1994, crashes involving at least one teenaged driver in Kentucky incurred costs of $410 million.
