Book excerpt: In developing crash countermeasures and the associated supporting models of driver behavior and performance, particularly those associated with response to threat or imminent crash situations, it is becoming increasingly apparent that data collection in a "naturalistic" setting is a preferred approach for obtaining necessary human factors data. Given the variability and complexity of driver behavior and performance, the random and rare nature of crashes, and the lack of adequate pre-crash data in today's crash record, it is especially important to collect real-world data that includes the crash experience and crash-relevant incidents in sufficient detail and depth. This elucidates the conditions and driver behaviors that precipitate crashes, and supports the development and refinement of crash countermeasures. The "100 Car Naturalistic Driving Study" is a three-phased effort designed to accomplish three objectives: Phase I, Conduct Test Planning Activities; Phase II, Conduct a Field Test; and Phase III, Prepare for Large-Scale Field Data Collection Effort. This report documents the efforts of Phase I. Project sponsors are the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Virginia Department of Transportation.

Download or read book Designing Safe Road Systems written by Dr Maria Kuiken and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books focus on individual differences and how those relate to traffic safety such as accident proneness, gender differences, age, alcohol, and the effects of drugs. Others focus on the safety effects regarding the vehicle such as airbags, anti-lock brakes, navigation systems, intelligent cruise control and other new gadgets coming to the vehicle. Even though these topics are undoubtedly important for traffic safety, this book takes a unique approach as it focuses solely on the road environment. Designing Safe Road Systems provides the background for those who want to know more about the effects of road design on driving behaviour. It uses a systems approach to allow a better understanding of why and in what circumstances drivers may commit errors. This understanding will ultimately lead to road systems that prevent (fatal) errors from occurring. The book contains an overview of the current models and theories about human performance and human behaviour in traffic that are relevant for all those involved in designing safe road systems. The central theme of this book is how design principles can reduce the probability of an error while driving. The authors demonstrate how knowledge of human factors helps a road authority to better understand how road users behave. They argue that in many cases the design of the environment can be further adjusted to human capabilities, and that safety should be considered a system property to be built into the road system.

Download or read book Behavioural Adaptation and Road Safety written by Christina Rudin-Brown and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-05-24 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite being an accepted construct in traffic and transport psychology, the precise nature of behavioural adaptation, including its causes and consequences, has not yet been established within the road safety community. A comprehensive collection of recent literature, Behavioural Adaptation and Road Safety: Theory, Evidence, and Action explores behavioural adaptation in road users. It examines behavioural adaptation within the context of historical and theoretical perspectives, and puts forth tangible—and practical—solutions that can effectively address adverse behavioural adaptation to road safety interventions before it occurs. Edited by Christina Rudin-Brown and Samantha Jamson, with chapters authored by leading road safety experts in driver psychology and behaviour, the book introduces the concept of behavioural adaptation and details its more relevant issues. It reviews the definition of behavioural adaptation that was put forward by the OECD in 1990 and then puts this definition through its paces, identifying where it may be lacking and how it might be improved. This sets the context for the remaining chapters which take the OECD definition as their starting points. The book discusses the various theories and models of behavioural adaptation and more general theories of driver behaviour developed during the last half century. It provides examples of the "evidence" for behavioural adaptation—instances in which behavioural adaptation arose as a consequence of the introduction of safety countermeasures. The book then focuses on the internal, "human" element and considers countermeasures that might be used to limit the development of behavioural adaptation in various road user groups. The book concludes with practical tools and methodologies to address behavioural adaptation in research and design, and to limit the potential negative effects before they happen. Supplying easy-to-understand, accessible solutions that can be implemented early on in a road safety intervention’s design or conception phase, the chapters represent the most extensive compilation of literature relating to behavioural adaptation and its consequences since the 1990 OECD report. The book brings together earlier theories of behavioural adaptation with more recent theories in the area and combines them with practical advice, methods, and tangible solutions that can minimise the potential negative impact of behavioural adaptation on road user safety and address it before it occurs. It is an essential component of any road safety library, and should be of particular relevance to researchers, practitioners, designers, and policymakers who are interested in maximizing safety while at the same time encouraging innovation and excellence in road transport-related design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers and discussions from a Symposium on :'Hu man Behavior and Traffic Safety" held at the General Motors Research Labora tories on September 23-25, 1984. This Symposium was the twenty-ninth in an annual series sponsored by the Research Laboratories. Initiated in 1957, these symposia have as their objective the promotion of the interchange of knowledge among specialists from many allied disciplines in rapidly developing or chang ing areas of science or technology. Attendees characteristically represent the aca demic, government, and industrial institutions that are noted for their ongoing activities in the particular area of interest. of this Symposium was to focus on the role of human behavior The objective in traffic safety. In this regard, a clear distinction is drawn between, on the one hand, "human behavior," and on the other "human performance." Human per formance at the driving task, or what the driver can do, has been the subject of much research reported in the technical literature. Although clearly of some rel evance, questions of performance do not appear to be central to most traffic crashes. Of much more central importance is human behavior, or what the driver in fact does. This is much more difficult to determine, and is the subject of the Symposium.

Download or read book Modeling Microstructure of Drivers' Task Switching Behavior and Estimating Crash Risk written by Ja Young Lee and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driver distraction has been a longstanding cause of vehicle crashes. To understand and predict distracted drivers' task switching behavior between driving and secondary task and to mitigate negative consequences of distraction associated with inappropriate task switching, researchers have analyzed glance behaviors and developed models of driver behavior. In most of the studies, however, the microstructure of glance patterns that shows the process of drivers' engagement and disengagement with secondary task has been neglected. This dissertation presents a computational model of driver distraction that accounts for the joint and dynamic influence of external factors (influence of uncertainty and task structure) and internal factors (individual differences), which has been not well demonstrated in previous driver models. The model can predict drivers' glance patterns associated with a secondary task, making it possible to quickly evaluate potential danger of many candidate task designs and to better understand cognitive mechanisms underlying distraction. The model specifically focuses on the effect of task structures (i.e., subtask boundary designs) on dynamic task switching behavior. The model shows how subtask boundaries influence how frequently and how long drivers--each with different characteristics--interact with secondary tasks. Another gap of the current literature is that the actual crash risk that different task structures contribute to driver distraction has not been extensively studied. This dissertation also estimates crash and injury risk associated with different subtask boundary designs, using a counterfactual simulation, which explores how alternative glance patterns might alter the observed consequence of an event. Overall, the dissertation spans an empirical study (Chapter 3), computational modeling of task switching behavior (Chapter 4), and simulation of crash risk (Chapter 5). This set of studies explores the effect of task structures on glance patterns and quantifies the risk of driver distraction caused by different task structures. The model's approach of inferring cognitive mechanisms (micro-level) underlying the overall system outcomes (macro-level) is rigorous and useful in understanding the overall cost or benefit of task switching, not only in driving situations but also in other multitasking situations with time-critical tasks. The computational model and simulation may also be used to assess how a task affects multitasking performance in the early stage of task design.
