Impacts of advanced driver assistance systems on commercial truck driver behaviour performance using naturalistic data

Traffic crashes tend to be more serious when commercial trucks are involved. And an increasing number of vehicles equipped with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) for traffic safety improvement. To this end, study investigated the impacts ADAS respect forward collision warning (FCW), urban (UFCW), lane departure (LDW), headway monitoring and (HMW), speed limit indicator (SLI) on truck drivers' behaviours using naturalistic data. Participants experienced two different test scenarios configurations: Visual audio alerts in inactive state active state. After activating alerts, 62%, 35%, 69%, 81% 73% drivers received less warnings terms FCW, UFCW, LDW, HMW SLI respectively; average respectively declined 22%, 13%, 28%, 45% 15%, but median changed little except LDW HMW. Then, further analysis results by one-way variance (ANOVA) method revealed that all UFCW had positive effect behaviour performance. The findings provide important references training supervision age technology.
