In two studies the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) including moral norms, anticipated regret and past behaviour was applied to predicting intention to exceed the posted speed limit across different roads and objectively assessed speeding behaviour. All measures except behaviour were taken by self-report questionnaires referring to different driving scenarios. The behaviour measures were based...

This paper revises the theoretical grounds for relation of the micro-level behaviour indicators to the safety and efficiency (level-of service) of the local traffic system. Automated video analysis is suggested as a tool for collection of the individual data about road users driving trajectories and speeds and interaction with other road users. We describe the current state of the video analysi...

The overall objective of the thesis is to explore various types of real-world road traffic data and to assess the extent to which they can inform the design of active safety systems that aim to prevent car-to-vulnerable road user (VRU) accidents. A combined analysis of in-depth and police reported accident data provided information on driver behavior and contextual variables, which is valuable ...

Road accidents are a major societal issue for every country. The purpose of this paper is to assess the number of traffic and road accidents depending on a series of variables (collision mode, road configuration, conditions of occurrence, road category, type of vehicle involved, personal factors, and length of time of the driving license) in Romania from 2012–2016. The analysis of the road acci...

organizations and companies have realized that hse management is an integral and vital part of modern factories and organizations. developing hse processes requires performance assessment, for which defining appropriate indicators is a necessity. as a result of the non-deterministic nature of performance indicators, assessments are prone to influence from the personal judgments by the evaluator...

PURPOSE The Useful Field of View (UFOV) test has been shown to be highly effective in predicting crash risk among older adults. An important question which we examined in this study is whether this association is due to the ability of the UFOV to predict difficulties in attention-demanding driving situations that involve either visual or auditory distracters. METHODS Participants included 92 ...

The State of Victoria, Australia has improved its road safety performance substantially in the periods 1989 to 1992 and since 2001. The lessons learned from this experience suggest that mechanisms by which governments and communities can achieve improved road safety outcomes are not well understood and have received little research attention. A clear recognition and understanding of principles ...
