2. 1. Driving Violations : Investigating Forms of Irrational Rationality

   Author : Sonja Forward; Lars Åberg; Dianne Parker; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; theory of planned behaviour; driving violations; risk-taking; speeding; dangerous overtaking; Psychology; Psykologi;

   Abstract : Several aspects contribute to road crashes and one important part is the ‘human factor’. This information is interesting but insufficient unless we also try to understand what is meant by the term. READ MORE

4. 2. Developing Theoretical and Empirical Definitions of Safety Problems in Driving Suitable for Active Safety Function Evaluation

   Author : Mikael Ljung Aust; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; avoidance; driver behaviour; pre-crash scenarios; crash causation; adaptation; motivation; conceptual framework; active safety functions;

   Abstract : In passive safety, the requirement specifications used for evaluation of protective functions are both standardised and specified at a high level of detail regarding evaluation scenario definition, performance metrics and pass/fail criteria. For active safety, while several propositions for evaluation scenarios have been made, neither these, nor performance metrics and pass/fail criteria have yet reached a similar level of detail and standardisation.

5. 3. Modelling self-reported aberrant driving behaviour

   Author : Per-Arne Rimmö; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Driving behaviour; Self-reports; Errors; Violations; Personality; Factor analysis; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

   Abstract : The highly complex behaviour involved in driving a vehicle may be viewed as a form of action control in a potentially hazardous traffic system. Behavioural adaptation to the traffic system is imperfect, as is sometimes reflected in mishaps and road traffic accidents. READ MORE

6. 4. Safe Transitions to Manual Driving From Faulty Automated Driving System

   Author : Josef Nilsson; RISE; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Driver takeover; functional safety; automated driving; safety; vehicle automation; driver capability; brake failure; controllability; driving simulator.;

   Abstract : This thesis presents a method to assess the safety of transitions from automated to manual driving when vehicle automation fails. The method is based on contributions to the understanding of human driving behavior, also presented in this thesis. READ MORE

7. 5. On Physical Relations in Driving: Judgements, Cognition and Perception

   Author : Gabriella Eriksson; Mäntylä Timo; Ola Svenson; Christopher Patten; Wändi Bruine de Bruin; Statens väg- och transportforskningsinstitut; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Driver; Driving veh ; Cognition; Behaviour; Choice; Speed; Fuel consumption; Route itinerary ; Thesis; 841 Road: Road user behaviour; 841 Road: Road user behaviour; Psychology;

   Abstract : Drivers need to make judgements of physical relationships related to driving speed, such as mean speed, risks, travel time and fuel consumption, in order to make optimal choices of vehicle speed. This is also the case for the general public, politicians and other stakeholders who are engaged in traffic issues. READ MORE
