Moreover, we uncover threshold and interaction effects unique to the post-pandemic era, including positive interactions between the proportion of African American residents and poverty rates, carless households and gasoline price, VRM and polycentricity.

However, this surge has led to a concerning increase in road traffic crashes involving delivery riders. From this, an urgent need has emerged for a comprehensive study to explore the complex traffic safety issues that this vulnerable group faces daily. Therefore, this study aims to provide in-depth insights into the unsafe riding practices of food delivery riders and to identify effective countermeasures to mitigate the risks they commonly encounter. To address this need, the study has proposed a theoretical framework based on the job demands-resources (JD-R) model. In addition, two constructs, including safety compliance and intention to violate traffic rules, are incorporated into the JD-R model to examine their impact on negative safety outcomes. A survey was conducted in Danang city, Vietnam, gathering responses from 419 delivery riders. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling was employed to analyze the relationships among the constructs in the developed model. The results highlight the significance of all job aspects as predictors of safety compliance and intentions to violate traffic rules. Furthermore, the study’s findings reveal that safety compliance serves as a mediator between job demands and job resources, influencing negative safety outcomes. Based on these research findings, platform firms can strategically consider implementing tailored solutions to enhance traffic safety, discourage participation in unsafe riding practices, and promote sustainable travel behavior patterns among delivery riders.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51534,"journal":{"name":"Travel Behaviour and Society","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 100995"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143427978","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}

Those focusing on access/egress origin–destination trips are rather limited. This study employs XGBoost models to examine the impact of trip distance, as well as the origin and destination factors, on the metro-ridesourcing integrated access/egress trips during weekday morning and evening peak hours using ridesourcing trip record data in Nanjing, China. Most factors have similar effects on metro-ridesourcing integrated usage, regardless of type differences and temporal heterogeneity. For example, all four types of integrated usage are positively associated with the density of bike-sharing services at both metro station sides and Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) sides. An interesting finding is that symmetric effects are found regarding the distance of TAZs to the city center, TAZ-side employment density, residence density, and population-to-employment balance index. The association between these factors and morning-peak access usage is similar to that for evening-peak egress usage, and morning-peak egress usage shares similar patterns with evening-peak access usage. Understanding how the influencing factors affect different types of metro-ridesourcing integrated usage can gain refined results and thus provide targeted policies to policymakers and shared mobility operators to further promote multimodal metro use.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51534,"journal":{"name":"Travel Behaviour and Society","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 100994"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143387608","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}
