Exceeding speed limits, driving under the influence of alcohol, not using seat belt, and distracted driving are accepted as risky driver behaviors by the World Health Organization. Determining the levels of risky behaviors in Turkish society and changing those behaviors are important to improve traffic safety in Turkey. The Transtheoretical Model, indicating the prescribed steps for change, was used to identify the steps for these risky behaviors and to examine possible differences. Data was collected via questionnaires from 120 drivers who do not hold driver licenses but are likely to be drivers in the future, 99 drivers with safe driving training and 140 drivers who have not received safe driving training. When the results of self-reports were evaluated in sum, it was found that the driver group who do not have safe driving training were significantly lower than non-driver group and the driver group who have safe driving training with regard to driving within the limits of speed, driving with alcohol, using mobile phone while driving and eating while driving. When the use of seat belts is considered, the driver group that does not have safe driving training is significantly lower than the non-driver group. Considering 359 participants of the study, the findings were revealed that the five risky behaviors were concentrated around the action step of the Transtheoretical Model. With the present study, it was aimed to prepare a working ground that could develop specific prevention and intervention programs in the future by identifying the steps regarding the five behaviors required for safe traffic in accordance with the steps of the Transtheoretical Model.
