Transaction Publishers, 1993. It is a collection of rules, socially approved boundaries which drivers operate their vehicles. One boundary is responsibility.
Personal responsibility focuses on individual feelings, motives, wants, goals.
Driving is also decision making. People are authors of their own behavior and are often labeled speeders, drinking drivers, risk takers. Drivers adjust their behaviors according to the responsibility they share to maintain patterns of joint action. Legal responsibility is like a social contract between drivers and the state. It's expected, if the driver chooses irresponsible driving, they should accept expected costs of an accident or change to an alternative conduct.
