Innovative countermeasures for red light running prevention at signalized intersections: A driving simulator study
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Article)
The change interval, which includes the yellow and all-red times, plays a crucial role in the safety and operation of signalized intersections. During this interval, drivers not only need to decide to stop or go but also ...
Safer pedestrian crossing facilities on low-speed roads: Comparison of innovative treatments
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Despite the international efforts to improve pedestrian safety in different regions of the world, pedestrian fatalities still account for around one-third of annual road traffic deaths. Residential areas are commonly ...
Improved driver behaviour at bus stops on local roads: Comparison of different treatments
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Every day, millions of students use school bus as a mean of transportation to and from schools. Nevertheless, most of the school bus related crashes occur at or near bus stops. The overtaking of stopped school buses during ...
Assessment of different pedestrian communication strategies for improving driver behavior at marked crosswalks on free channelized right turns
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Introduction: Previous studies have indicated low driver yielding rates to pedestrians in various countries. This study analyzed four different strategies to improve driver yielding rates at marked crosswalks on channelized ...
Aberrant driving behaviors as mediators in the relationship between driving anger patterns and crashes among taxi drivers: An investigation in a complex cultural context
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2023 , Article)
Objective: Taxis have become an integrated component of Qatar’s urban transportation network due to their convenience, comfort, and flexibility. Qatar has seen an uptick in the demand for professional taxi drivers. Most ...
Lane-based analysis of the saturation flow rate considering traffic composition
(
Informa UK Limited - Taylor & Francis
, 2023 , Article)
Saturation flow rate (SFR) is an essential metric for estimating the capacities of signalized intersections. Many factors, including traffic composition, configuration and geometry of the intersection, and driver behavior, ...
Do detection-based warning strategies improve vehicle yielding behavior at uncontrolled midblock crosswalks?
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Pedestrians being the most vulnerable road users account for a large proportion of injuries and fatalities from road traffic crashes. Pedestrians are involved in around one-third of the whole fatalities coming from the ...
Improved traffic safety at work zones through animation-based variable message signs
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Work zones are established to provide a safe environment for all road users and road workers. However, based on the statistics, they can be considered as crash prone zones due to changes in the road alignments and the ...
Autonomous vehicles between anticipation and apprehension: Investigations through safety and security perceptions
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Due to the ongoing enormous infrastructural developments and car ownership culture in Qatar, it could be one of those countries to introduce Autonomous Vehicles (AV) technology at the early stages. Therefore, this study ...
Interactions between autonomous vehicles and pedestrians at unsignalized mid-block crosswalks considering occlusions by opposing vehicles
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Visibility can be identified as one of the critical determinants for the safety performance of autonomous vehicles (AVs) on unsignalized mid-block crosswalks (UMC), which may be significantly influenced by build-up environment ...
