Such a rise in cyber-attacks can be an obstacle to widespread vehicle automation and the use of automated vehicles (AVs). Understanding people’s perception of cyber-attacks on AVs and the impact of the perception of cyber-attacks on ridership and sharing the road with AVs have become important for widespread automation. Regardless of its importance to the ridership of AVs, little effort has been exerted to understand the influence of cyberattacks on the use and adoption of AVs. This study uniquely contributes by identifying key demographic factors such as age, education, income, political ideology, and geographic location that influence perceptions of AV cybersecurity risks. These perceptions are linked to actual behavioral outcomes like ridership and road-sharing with AVs. This study applied Bayesian Networks to the nationwide data the Pew Research Center collected in November 2021. Older individuals are found to be more likely to believe AVs are vulnerable to cyber-attacks, while higher-educated, higher-income, and metropolitan residents tend to feel more secure about AV safety when it comes to cybersecurity threats. Importantly, the perception of cyber-attacks affects behavior differently: those with higher education and income who perceive AVs as vulnerable are less likely to ride in them, while older residents are less willing to share the road with AVs. These insights offer valuable direction for policymakers to design targeted educational campaigns to improve public trust and encourage broader AV adoption.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48355,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part F-Traffic Psychology and Behaviour","volume":"111 ","pages":"Pages 264-278"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143637165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An “item” is an independent directive or command of traffic signs. The results showed that as the TSISS increased, pupil area, scan rate, θ wave absolute power, longitudinal acceleration, steering wheel angle, and SCL significantly increased. In contrast, blink frequency, α wave absolute power, and vehicle longitudinal speed decreased. When the TSISS did not exceed 0.600 items/s, the efficiency values calculated by the data envelopment analysis model were high (more than 0.950). However, when the TSISS exceeded 0.600 items/s, the efficiency significantly decreased (below 0.850). Based on these findings, 0.600 items/s is recommended as the optimal threshold for TSISS at highway tunnel entrances.

This research investigates driver behaviors during Take Over Requests (TORs) in automated vehicles at SAE Levels 2 and 3 using the HADRIAN Human-Machine Interface (HMI), designed to enhance driver support through real-time feedback and countdown displays. Analysis included clustering to develop distinct driving profiles based on key measurements collected through a driving simulator experiment, such as acceleration, deceleration, and speed, offering a deep understanding of driver behavior in responses to TORs. Three primary driving profiles were identified: “Passive driving and slow TOR response”, “Nervous driving and moderate TOR response”, and “Normal driving and quick TOR response”. This study also provides specific insights for each automation level, identifying profiles of driver behaviors at both SAE Levels 2 and 3. Results reveal that the nervous driving profile, although less frequent, poses significant safety implications due to higher deceleration rates and variability in speed and deceleration. Additionally, the study highlights that Non-Driving Related Tasks (NDRTs) increase the need for longer Take Over Time (TOT), with greater variability observed at higher automation levels, making accurate estimation of required TOT more challenging. The HADRIAN HMI is shown to positively impact driver performance by increasing TOT, allowing drivers more time to transition from automated to manual control comfortably. These insights can inform the design of more adaptive HMI systems, enhance real-time feedback mechanisms, and improve driver training programs to ensure safer transitions during TORs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48355,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part F-Traffic Psychology and Behaviour","volume":"111 ","pages":"Pages 250-263"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143609652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prior research has not collected data from road users residing in areas in which AVs are deployed and who have solid experience with AVs by regular interactions with them. As a result, a comprehensive and rich analysis of road users’ responses to AVs in traffic based on solid experience and the underlying reasons is missing. The two main research questions of this study are: 1) How <em>do</em> road users respond to AVs in traffic? and 2) Which factors affect road users’ responses to AVs in traffic? Semi-structured interviews were conducted with individuals residing in U.S. cities in which driverless AVs are deployed to explore <em>how</em> and <em>why</em> road users respond to driverless AVs in traffic. Content analysis was applied to manually identify themes in the data, complemented by using large language models. We also computed Spearman rank-order correlations to determine significant associations between the sub-themes. The most common road user behaviors were being more cautious around AVs, letting the AV pass and waving and gawking at them. Road users took advantage of the capabilities of AVs, cutting them off, slowing them down, or recklessly crossing the road in front. The AV safety operators typically monitored the operation of the AV, contributing to the perception that AVs are safe and predictable. Other participants reported incidences of inattentive drivers / human operators of Tesla’s SAE Level 2 partially automated driving system, being observed sleeping in the AV and rear-ending one of our participants. The most common external communication cue between road users and human drivers was eye contact, in some cases also when there was no operator present. Media reports / personal stories involving fatal accidents with AVs, particularly those linked to Tesla’s partially automated driving system, were linked to concerns about AV safety. Our study reveals significant associations between the behavior of AVs (e.g., AV being stuck) and road users’ changes in behavior, cognition (e.g., trust, distrust) and affect (e.g., perceived safety, frustration or anger). More trials with AVs on public roads can promote the interest and curiosity of road users, and their acceptance and use of AVs. The need for eHMIs and their effectiveness in promoting safer, more efficient, and comfortable interactions needs to be further investigated.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48355,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part F-Traffic Psychology and Behaviour","volume":"111 ","pages":"Pages 188-210"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143592157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to test the hypotheses and examine the relationships between the variables and dynamic vehicle data. The results show that a lack of driving skills (coefficient: 0.197) and poor situational awareness (coefficient: 0.804) significantly contribute to high-risk violations. Additionally, reduced situational awareness (coefficient: 0.692) directly impairs driving skills in challenging situations. Crash history is influenced by poor situational awareness (coefficient: 0.447) and negatively affects driving skills (coefficient: 0.335). These findings highlight the crucial role of situational awareness in preventing violations and improving driving skills. They suggest that training programs aimed at enhancing situational awareness could effectively reduce crash rates and promote safer driving behaviors among novice young drivers.
