The Influence of False and Missing Alarms of Safety System on Drivers' Risk-Taking Behavior
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study investigates the influence of false and missing alarms of safety system on drivers' risk-taking behavior by laboratory experiments. The task is to move a vehicle from below to top through an intersection displayed on a PC monitor without colliding with crossing traffic. Participants performed the task under different experimental conditions with different types of system failure: (1) no failure, (2) false alarm, (3) missing alarm, and (4) no information. We conducted two experiments. The difference between Experiment 1 (E1) and Experiment 2 (E2) is the frequency of false or missing alarms: erroneous alarms occurred twice as many in E2 as E1. The differences of the result between E1 and E2 indicate that the different frequencies of missing alarm have a different effect on risk-taking behavior.

Dynamics of Drivers’ Trust in Warning Systems
This paper focuses on how the behavior of drivers in response to warning systems is influenced by their trust in those warning systems. The experimental examinations show that a) false alarms result in a reduction in trust and an increased reaction time to braking, b) a lack of alarms result in a delay in the recognition of hazardous situations, c) excessive trust induces significant delays in ...

متن کاملCooperative warning systems: The impact of false and unnecessary alarms on drivers' compliance.
Cooperative warning systems have a great potential to prevent traffic accidents. However, because of their predictive nature, they might also go along with an increased frequency of incorrect alarms that could limit their effectiveness. To better understand the consequences associated with incorrect alarms, a driving simulator study with N=80 drivers was conducted to investigate how situational...
