  1. 1. Speed Choice : The Driver, the Road and Speed Limits

    Författare :Mats Haglund; Nils Petter Gregersen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Driving behaviour; Speed choice; Risk estimates; Enforcement; Attitudes; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Speed choice is one of the more characteristic features of driver behaviour. The speed a driver chooses to travel at determines the degree of difficulty he or she operates under. Higher speeds lead to more accidents, higher accident risk and more severe consequences of an accident. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Impacts of Speed Limits and Information Systems on Speed Choice from a Safety Perspective

    Författare :Ary P. Silvano; Haris N. Koutsopoulos; Karl-Lennart Bång; Haneen Farah; Johan Olstam; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; speed choice; urban; roads; speed limits; road characteristics; traffic safety; cooperative systems and warning messages;

    Sammanfattning : Driving a vehicle is considered a demanding task in a complex dynamic environment. For instance, driving a vehicle on urban roads, where motorized vehicles meet vulnerable road users (VRUs) creates a multifaceted environment with difficult trade-offs and interactions. LÄS MER

  4. 3. On Physical Relations in Driving: Judgements, Cognition and Perception

    Författare :Gabriella Eriksson; Mäntylä Timo; Ola Svenson; Christopher Patten; Wändi Bruine de Bruin; Statens väg- och transportforskningsinstitut; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Driver; Driving veh ; Cognition; Behaviour; Choice; Speed; Fuel consumption; Route itinerary ; Thesis; 841 Road: Road user behaviour; 841 Road: Road user behaviour; Psychology;

    Sammanfattning : Drivers need to make judgements of physical relationships related to driving speed, such as mean speed, risks, travel time and fuel consumption, in order to make optimal choices of vehicle speed. This is also the case for the general public, politicians and other stakeholders who are engaged in traffic issues. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Utvärdering av cykelfälts effekter på cyklisters säkerhet och cykelns konkurrenskraft mot bil

    Författare :Annika Nilsson; Trafik och väg; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mode choice; route choice; bicycle flow; bicycle counts; level of service; attitudes; speed; lateral position; Road transport technology; behavior; Vägtransportteknik; Bicycle traffic; traffic safety; bicycle planning; bicycle lanes;

    Sammanfattning : This work presents an evaluation of bicycle lane effects on cyclist safety and the ability of bicycles to compete with car traffic. Thirteen Swedish urban streets were studied before and after bicycle lanes were introduced. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Speed characteristics of urban streets based on driver behaviour studies and simulation

    Författare :Karin F. M. Aronsson; Karl-Lennart Bång; Bengt Holmberg; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Speed; Characteristics; Urban area; Road network; Street; Traffic; Driver; Side-friction element; Driving simulator; Simulation; Measurement; Behaviour; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of the study was to gain in-depth knowledge of speed relationships for urban streets. The speed characteristics were examined using a number of methods for data collection. LÄS MER
