Driver behavior impact on pedestrians' crossing experience in the conditionally autonomous driving context
نویسندگان
چکیده
Autonomous vehicles are developing at a rapid pace while pedestrians’ experience with autonomous vehicles is less researched. This paper reported an exploratory study where 40 participants encountered a conditionally autonomous vehicle with unusual driver behaviors at crossing by watching videos and photos. Questionnaires and semi-structured interviews were used to investigate pedestrians’ experience. The results showed distracted driver behaviors in the conditionally autonomous driving context had negative impact on pedestrians’ crossing experience. Black window on conditionally autonomous vehicles made pedestrians feel uncomfortable and worried.

The hazards of pedestrian mobile-phone use when crossing signalized intersections, Iran (2017); an observational study
Background: Distracted walking is a major cause of pedestrian fatalities. Along with the expansion and popularity of mobile phones, their impacts on pedestrian safety, especially when crossing urban intersections have attracted a lot of attention. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of mobile-phone use on pedestrians’ crossing behavior when passing signalized intersections. Ma...
متن کاملA Study of Pedestrian Movement on Crosswalks Based on Chaos Theory
Walking, as an important transportation mode, plays a large part in urban transportation systems. This mode is of great importance for planners and decision-makers because of its impact on environmental and health aspects of communities. However, this mode is so complex in nature that makes it difficult to study or model. On the other hand, chaos theory studies complex dynamical nonlinear syste...

متن کاملGender differences in factors predicting unsafe crossing decisions in adult pedestrians across the lifespan: a simulation study.
Adult pedestrian accident data has demonstrated that the risk of being killed or seriously injured varies with age and gender. A range of factors affecting road crossing choices of 218 adults aged 17-90+ were examined in a simulation study using filmed real traffic. With increasing age, women were shown to make more unsafe crossing decisions, to leave small safety margins and to become poorer a...
متن کاملOn the necessity of adaptive eye movement classification in conditionally automated driving scenarios
Algorithms for eye movement classification are separated into threshold-based and probabilistic methods. While the parameters of static threshold-based algorithms usually need to be chosen for the particular task (task-individual), the probabilistic methods were introduced to meet the challenge of adjusting automatically to multiple individuals with different viewing behaviors (inter-individual...
