The topical questioning centered on the series of accidents and near misses in general and specifically in the petroleum products sector called for the need to look for other causes. To do so, we conceptually proposed a model derived from the literature review and adjusted by practical research, which shows that our approach of is the hypothetico-deductive type. Methodologically, the observations from the experience of 90 questionnaires were operationalized using multivariate logistic regression analyses. The results indicate that making or receiving calls while driving significantly influences the occurrence of reckless driving situations. Reading and sending Short Message Service (SMS or text messages) while driving negatively influences drivers' performance by increasing delivery times. The type of phone used has an effect on the risk of accidents or near misses. Indeed, drivers who use smartphones are 2.14 times more likely to experience crash-like events compared to those who use conventional mobile phones.\u0000 In addition, with a view to reducing near-misses and accidents, it is important to organize regular appropriate road safety campaigns, to install on-board cameras in all trucks, to provide rest areas and encourage drivers to stop at these areas to check their phones and catch up on missed calls. Additionally to introduce training for drivers in defensive driving with a renewable license after a maximum of 2 years.","PeriodicalId":52804,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Safety and Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44700913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The bus passengers’ anger scale and expression inventory (BPASX), a newly-designed questionnaire battery, is used to analyze anger levels and resulted behavior expression of passengers in 6-item anger-provoking situations. The analysis shows that a positive correlation exists between the frequency or duration of bus rides and anger levels/ external anger expression, while self-adaptive expression is only correlated with the frequency. Gender differs only in the violent external expression where males display a greater preference. Meanwhile, the correlations of anger levels among anger-provoking situations are significantly positive. Moreover, anger expression patterns gradually shift from self-adaptation to external expression as anger levels grow in general, but the variation rules of expression frequency are different. Overall, this study provides a newly effective tool to explore characteristics of anger expression of bus passengers under different anger-provoking scenarios and demonstrates its variation features when anger levels change.","PeriodicalId":52804,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Safety and Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44791954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the existing RLTSC methods do not consider the driver's response time requirement, so the systems often face efficiency limitations and implementation difficulties. We propose the advance decision-making reinforcement learning traffic signal control (AD-RLTSC) algorithm to improve traffic efficiency while ensuring safety in mixed traffic environment. First, the relationship between the intersection perception range and the signal control period is established and the trust region state (TRS) is proposed. Then, the scalable state matrix is dynamically adjusted to decide the future signal light status. The decision will be displayed to the human-driven vehicles (HDVs) through the bi-countdown timer mechanism and sent to the nearby connected automated vehicles (CAVs) using the wireless network rather than be executed immediately. HDVs and CAVs optimize the driving speed based on the remaining green (or red) time. Besides, the Double Dueling Deep Q-learning Network algorithm is used for reinforcement learning training; a standardized reward is proposed to enhance the performance of intersection control and prioritized experience replay is adopted to improve sample utilization. The experimental results on vehicle micro-behaviour and traffic macro-efficiency showed that the proposed AD-RLTSC algorithm can simultaneously improve both traffic efficiency and traffic flow stability.","PeriodicalId":52804,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Safety and Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43074801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cooperative vehicle infras- tructure system (CVIS) is considered to improve heterogeneous traffic safety by connecting and controlling AVs cooperatively, and the connected AVs are so-called connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). However, the safety impact of cooperative control strategy on the heterogeneous traffic with CAVs and human-driving vehicles (HVs) has not been well investigated. In this paper, based on the traffic simulator SUMO, we designed a typical highway scenario of on-ramp merging and adopted a cooperative control method for CAVs. We then compared the safety performance for two different heterogeneous traffic systems, i.e. AV and HV, CAV and HV, respectively, to illustrate the safety benefits of the cooperative control strategy. We found that the safety performance of the CAV and HV traffic system does not always outperform that of AV and HV. With random departSpeed and higher arrival rate, the proposed cooperative control method would decrease the conflicts significantly whereas the penetration rate is over 80%. We further investigated the conflicts in terms of the leading and following vehicle types, and found that the risk of a AV/CAV followed by a HV is twice that of a HV followed by another HV. We also considered the safety effect of communication failure, and found that there is no significant impact until the packet loss probability is greater than 30%, while communication delay’s impact on safety can be ignored according to our experiments.","PeriodicalId":52804,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Safety and Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45935423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to travel restrictions by governments and increased perceived risks of the disease, there have been significant changes in social activities and travel patterns. This paper investigates the effects of COVID-19 on changes to individuals' travel patterns, particularly for travel purposes. An online questionnaire survey was conducted in China, which incorporates questions about individuals’ sociodemographic and travel characteristics in three different periods of COVID-19 (i.e. before the outbreak, at the peak and after the peak; the peak here refers to the peak of the pandemic in China, between the end of January and 1 May, 2020). The results show that trip frequency decreased sharply from the outbreak until the peak, and drastically increased after the peak. Nevertheless, the data from this study suggests that it has not fully recovered to the level before the outbreak. Subsequently, a series of random parameters bivariate Probit models for changes in travel patterns were estimated with personal characteristics. The findings demonstrate that during the peak of the pandemic, residents who did not live in more developed cities reached low-frequency travel patterns more quickly. For travel purposes, residents of Wuhan, China resumed travelling for work, entertainment and buy necessities at a much higher rate than other cities. After the peak, students' travel for work, entertainment and to buy necessities recovered significantly faster than for other occupations. The findings would be helpful for establishing effective policies to control individual travel and minimize disease spread in a possible future pandemic.","PeriodicalId":52804,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Safety and Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42209280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the comfort degradation mechanism during long-term sitting in high-speed railways is still unknown. This study aimed to reveal passengers’ sitting comfort degradation mechanism in high-speed railways. By carrying out long-term sitting tests on high-speed trains running on the Shanghai-Kunming line, the dynamic interface pressure and subjective comfort including overall and regional comfort of seven participants were obtained. Machine learning models and statistical analysis methods were combined for data analysis to reveal the effect of regional comfort and the contribution of sitting duration during the process of sitting comfort degradation. The results show that overall comfort is most significantly influenced by the comfort of the shoulders, waist and buttocks. The seats play different roles before and after 20 minutes during long-term sitting and there is a lag between the fatigue occurring and being offset. Therefore, the structure of seats affects overall comfort by affecting important regional comfort, and a long-term sitting test is necessary for accurate seat assessment. The comfort degradation mechanism can be used to define standards for long-term sitting comfort or provide guidance for seat evaluation, and the design and evaluation plan mentioned in this article for second-class seats can be applied to other cases with limited accommodating space.","PeriodicalId":52804,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Safety and Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48708276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
