Human factors and road safety in the 2nd international traffic safety conference
الملخص
This special issue presents selected articles submitted to the 2nd International Traffic Safety Conference 2023, Doha, (Qatar). More than 150 papers were submitted and they were peer-reviewed. Only 16 papers were highly evaluated and recommended for the journal's special issue. These papers were invited for the special issue and were peer-reviewed again to ensure the high quality of final accepted articles. Finally, 13 papers were accepted and published. The special issue includes different studies that investigate the role of road user behavior in road safety and crash occurrence. As reported by many studies such as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration traffic safety fact report in 2016 (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Citation2016), the human factor is a dominant contributor to road safety, where more than 94% of all road crashes are directly or indirectly attributed to road user behavior. This positioned road user behavior at the core of road safety research, which has been studied subjectively through questionnaires and interviews or objectively through real-world observations or simulation analysis to identify correlations with crash occurrence.
