Publication details: Bryssel ITS in daily life: 16th world congress and exhibition on intelligent transport systems and services, Stockholm 21-25 September 2009. Paper, 2009Description: 9 sSubject(s): Bibl.nr: VTI P1835:16 [World]Location: Abstract: Recent research indicates that driver error contributes to most accidents. Despite this, only relatively little is currently known about the types of errors that drivers make and of the causal factors that contribute to these errors being made. This paper presents an overview of the literature on driver error in road transport. A generic driver error classification scheme is proposed based upon the dominant psychological mechanisms thought to be involved. A range of potential technological solutions that could be used to either prevent, or mitigate, the consequences of the driver errors identified are specified.| Cover image | Item type | Current library | Home library | Collection | Shelving location | Call number | Materials specified | Vol info | URL | Copy number | Status | Notes | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | Item hold queue priority | Course reserves | |
