Investigating the attitudes of Egyptian drivers toward traffic safety
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
One of the main pillars for improving road safety in any country is a good understanding of traffic safety culture and the driving behavior of local drivers. The primary aim of this study was to determine whether Egyptian ...
Road safety status during COVID-19 pandemic: exploring public and road safety expert’s opinions
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2022 , Article)
The main objective of this study is to investigate the status of traffic safety and the public perception of traffic safety during the during COVID-19 pandemic. Three different data sets are used in this study: road crash ...
Experiences with licensing by autistic drivers: An exploratory study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Autistic individuals obtain their driver's licenses significantly less or significantly later than non-autistic peers. In the past, research has been done on what problems autistic individuals experience when (learning to) ...
A study on the determinants of Ethiopian minibus taxi drivers' speeding behaviour: An application of the 'major theorists' model
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Speeding is the most common road safety problem that results in many traffic accidents in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Minibus taxis substantially contribute to speed-related road traffic crashes in Addis Ababa. This study aimed ...
Dynamic travel information strategies in advance traveler information systems and their effect on route choices along highways
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Advance Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) inform drivers about traffic incidences and expected travel times/ delays en-route. An online computer study was conducted in Qatar to investigate drivers' willingness ...
Innovative countermeasures for red light running prevention at signalized intersections: A driving simulator study
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , 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 ...
Impact of the geometric field of view on drivers’ speed perception and lateral position in driving simulators
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Driving simulators have become an effective tool in road safety research. In recent years, the validity of simulators raised debates concerning the extant to which driving in the simulator resembles driving in the reality. ...
Empirical evaluation of drivers’ start-up behavior at signalized intersection using driving simulator
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Start-up behavior at signalized intersection mainly depends on perception reaction time of drivers to the green phase. This study investigated the start-up behavior at signalized intersections by considering reaction time, ...
Pedestrian flow characteristics through different angled bends: Exploring the spatial variation of velocity
(
Public Library of Science (PLOS)
, 2022 , Article)
Common geometrical layouts could potentially be bottlenecks, particularly during emergency and high density situations. When pedestrians are interacting with such complex geometrical settings, the congestion effect might ...
Analysis of Stopping Sight Distance (SSD) Parameters: A Review Study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Stopping sight distance (SSD) is one of the important elements in geometric highway design, which relies on the two key parameters, i.e., vehicle braking characteristics and drivers' reaction time. Previous studies have ...
