We reviewed empirical studies using survey experiments, simulator experiments, test-track experiments, on-road observations, and AV accident analysis. They present mixed evidence on the influences of human-AV interactions in mixed traffic, with an overall negative trend. Negative influences are bi-directional: humans may interact with AVs less cautiously, such as driving more aggressively or exploiting AVs, while AVs can induce negative changes in driver behaviours, including exerting negative peer influences and creating challenges for drivers.
