While the literature has focused primarily on the post-take-over behavior of passenger car drivers, assessing different aspects of Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) drivers’ post-take-over behavior has received less attention, although it is anticipated that CMVs will be the first to vastly adopt highly automated technology. This paper aims to address the question of how long the effect of TOC lasts in CMV drivers and how automated operation duration before TOC, repeated TOC, and driver’s factors (i.e., age, gender, education, and driving history) affect the duration of TOC’s effect. To accomplish this, we designed a 40-minute experiment on a driving simulator and compared participants’ responses to TOC with continuous manual driving to first, assess significant changes in driving behavior indices (e.g., acceleration, velocity, and headway) in different time intervals and second, evaluate the survival patterns of unsafe behaviors (e.g., hard brakes, sharp turns, and speeding) over time. Multilevel Mixed-effect Linear Models and Multilevel Mixed-effect Parametric Survival Models are incorporated to assess the duration of TOC’s effects. Results showed that the first 10 s of TOC carries the most significant driving behavior changes while the probability of observing unsafe behaviors reduces significantly after 20 s. The results indicated that the effect of TOC lasts longer in long-automated operations, old drivers, and drivers with bad driving history, while repeated TOCs, showed positive effects on mediating the effect of this transition.

By considering three factors — economic incentives, punitive measures, and travel scenarios — this study examined variations in users’ willingness to standardize the parking of shared bicycles. Data from 809 valid questionnaires were collected and empirically analyzed using bootstrap and regression analyses. According to the results, both economic incentives and penalties significantly enhanced users’ willingness to standardize the parking of shared bicycles, and the impact of penalties was slightly stronger than that of incentives. Perceived value played a mediating role between economic incentives and users’ willingness to properly park shared bicycles.

Electroencephalography (EEG) data, which provides direct and effective physiological indicators for recognizing driver states, combined with associated machine-learning techniques, can be used to monitor driver decisions. However, the ability of EEG to predict a driver’s stop/go decisions remains unclear. To investigate this, we collected both EEG and behavioral data from drivers at a flashing-light-controlled grade crossing, where stop/go decisions are critical, using a driving simulator. Herein, we propose an EEG-based prediction framework that combines functional brain network analysis with conventional neural networks (FBN-CNNs) to predict drivers’ stop/go decisions. The functional brain network was measured using phase-lag index matrices and minimum-spanning tree techniques. We subsequently compared the obtained results of the FBN-CNN with those from traditional machine learning methods, specifically random forest (RF) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). The results indicate that when facing a flashing red light, drivers who decide to stop exhibit stronger alpha band connectivity and weaker delta and theta activity than those who run the red-light. Furthermore, the FBN-CNN model outperformed the machine learning methods (RF and SVM) in both extracting EEG features and achieving high prediction accuracy. Interestingly, the EEGs of drivers during normal driving stages could help to predict their stop-or-go behavior at the onset of a flashing red light. In the typical dilemma zone, combining EEG data from the normal driving stage with those from the pre-decision stage improved the accuracy from 76% to 90%.

While occlusion methods are commonly employed to study drivers’ visual information sampling, the variability in self-selected occlusion times and their relationship to actual driving performance has yet to be fully understood. In a driving simulator study with 30 participants, we analyzed and compared the situational dynamics influencing visual information sampling and performance in an occluded lane-keeping task. The findings underscore the significant influence of speed, lane position, time-to-line-crossing at the start of occlusion, and steering during occlusion on spare visual capacity in lane-keeping. Although the participants were able to make slight adjustments to their visual sampling based on these variables, their occlusion time choices appeared to be stable and primarily driven by individual preferences, unrelated to their driving experience or general lateral control instability under occlusion. In contrast, drivers’ general instability in lateral control under single-occlusion driving emerged as the strongest predictor of lane crossing during continuous, intermittently occluded driving. These insights contribute to the understanding of information sampling dynamics and spare visual capacity in lateral vehicle control, potentially guiding the development of personalized and contextually intelligent driver attention monitoring and warning systems.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48355,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part F-Traffic Psychology and Behaviour","volume":"107 ","pages":"Pages 98-114"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1369847824002419/pdfft?md5=25e886016aed5e8432bf634e18461e74&pid=1-s2.0-S1369847824002419-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142135951","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}

The purpose of this study is to characterize the driving behavior of MVs following AVs in mixed-traffic situations. To characterize vehicle interactions between AVs and MVs, this study conducts multi-agent driving simulation (MADS) experiments, which can synchronize the space and time domains on the road by connecting two driving simulators. A maneuvering control logic for AV driving, which is used for MADS, is developed in this study. The driving behavioral data of MVs following AVs obtained from MADS are used to modify the parameters associated with the intelligent driver model (IDM). The IDM is a microscopic car-following model to represent the longitudinal following behavior of vehicles. This study identifies how the MV following AV would be different from the case where the MV follows MV. The results show that the average time headway of the following MVs in the AV-MV pair increased by 13.9% compared to the MV-MV pair. However, the maximum acceleration and average deceleration decreased by 44.45% and 4.89%, respectively. The proposed IDM for MV following AV was further plugged into a microscopic traffic simulation platform.

Previous research in this area, which has primarily used naturalistic observations or single-actor virtual reality simulations, has been limited by its inability to draw causal conclusions, also due to a lack of real human–human interactions. Our study addresses these limitations by employing a high-fidelity distributed simulation setup that links drivers in a motion-based simulator with pedestrians in a CAVE-based environment. This method allows for the examination of real-time and reciprocal interactions across a range of road-crossing scenarios. Using thirty-two pairs of drivers and pedestrians, we investigated how different factors, such as the presence of zebra crossings and varying time gaps of the approaching vehicle, influence driver behaviour and pedestrian crossing decisions. The effect of drivers’ control of the vehicle during such crossings (e.g., braking behaviour and lateral deviation) on pedestrians’ crossing decisions were also analysed. We found that the distribution of drivers’ average deceleration values were bimodal, where drivers either markedly yielded to pedestrians, or continued in their path, with very few instances of intermediate behaviour. We also found that pedestrian decisions were seemingly influenced by the different braking strategies adopted by the driver, with pedestrians crossing before the vehicles in response to soft and early, or late and hard braking, while late and soft braking often resulted in the vehicle passing first. We also observed a slight lateral movement of the vehicle away from pedestrians when drivers were not yielding, but more of a lateral deviation towards them when yielding. This may be because drivers subconsciously transfer their walking interaction habits to their driving behaviour, to avoid a collision with pedestrians. Finally, our results showed a stronger influence of these kinematic cues on pedestrian crossing decisions, when compared to zebra crossings. As well as highlighting the value of a novel approach for investigating vehicle–pedestrian interactions, this study illustrates how vehicle cues can assist pedestrian decisions, adding new knowledge in the development of human-like behaviour for future AVs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48355,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part F-Traffic Psychology and Behaviour","volume":"107 ","pages":"Pages 84-97"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1369847824002341/pdfft?md5=3556bd963730d2fe523bb74942ee37d1&pid=1-s2.0-S1369847824002341-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142122063","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}
