Abstract
Road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death and injuries. Violation of traffic rules is one of the reasons for accident involvement. The aim of the current study was to predict aberrant driving behavior by traffic risk perception and intentions based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) constructs. A total of 100 students participated in the study. Three questionnaires were administrated including Traffic Risk Perception Questionnaire, a TPB based Questionnaire and Driving Behavior Questionnaire. The results indicated that intention and behavioral attitude predicted aberrant driving behavior. Age, gender and traffic risk perception were non-significant. In conclusion, behavioural attitudes towards rule compliance were more important than traffic risk perception for performing aberrant driving behaviour. The implication is to increase positive attitudes towards compliance with traffic rules through educational programmes.
