  • Driving As You Feel: a Psychological Investigation of the Novice Driver Problem
    Driving as You Feel: A Psychological Investigation of the Novice Driver Problem Neale Andrew Duncan Kinnear A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Edinburgh Napier University, for the Award of Doctor of Philosophy May 2009 Declaration I, Neale Andrew Duncan Kinnear, hereby certify that this thesis has been written by me, that it is the record of work carried out by me and that it has not been submitted in any previous application for a higher degree. Date - 11th May 2009 Signature of candidate - Printed name - Neale Kinnear ii Dedication This thesis is dedicated to my Dad, the late Kenneth Duncan Kinnear who passed away on 10th August 2006. His constant encouragement and enthusiasm are sorely missed but were a great part of getting me to this stage in life. I must also pay tribute here to my wonderful Gran and Aunt Marjory who passed away shortly before Dad. iii Acknowledgements My wise Grandfather used to say that you are better born lucky than rich. At times I questioned this wisdom, however during my PhD I have been fortunate to have met and worked with some exceptional people. In this regard, I have been very lucky, although not rich. I must firstly thank my supervisors for their support and judgement throughout the completion of the thesis. Many thanks to Prof. Steve Stradling for giving me the opportunity and for having great faith in me. I have appreciated his encouragement and have learnt a lot from him. Dr. Cynthia McVey has been instrumental in setting me along this path and again I am privileged at the faith she has shown in me.

In January, the Matawan-Aberdeen Board of Education must begin providing transportation for the 21 students, who are enrolled in the Matawan district because it operates MAST. Calling the MAST program “ill- conceived," most board members Monday rejected an agreement to bus the students this year and accept reimbursement. "This program was opened with no foresight,” Board Vice President Dwight Pfennig said. "That they did not even plan busing was inexcusable.” “ 1 don't think we should approve this agreement," he said. “We may end up footing the bill." A total of 21 township residents are full­ time students at MAST and are enrolled in the Matawan school district. Another ll Middletown students attend MAST part­ time and are enrolled in the local district. Since September, the Middletown board has contracted for buses for all the stu­ dents on a per-diem basis.
