What Role Do Precrash Driver Actions Play in Work Zone Crashes?: Application of Hierarchical Models to Crash Data
Highway infrastructure requires periodic maintenance, reconstruction, and rehabilitation. As a result, highway users have to deal with work zone activities such as lane closures and lane shifts or … [Read more...] about What Role Do Precrash Driver Actions Play in Work Zone Crashes?: Application of Hierarchical Models to Crash Data
An Assessment of Safety Culture While Navigating Work Zones: Attitudes and Behavior Toward In-Vehicle Messaging Technologies
A survey was administered to evaluate a variety of driver opinions, behaviors, and technology use in the context of work zones. Safety culture thematic inquiries, such as willingness to use a cell … [Read more...] about An Assessment of Safety Culture While Navigating Work Zones: Attitudes and Behavior Toward In-Vehicle Messaging Technologies
Modeling Vehicle Merging Behavior in Work Zone Merging Areas During the Merging Implementation Period
Using the classification and regression tree (CART) method, this study aims to model the vehicle merging behavior at work zone merging areas during the merging implementation period. Hereafter, the … [Read more...] about Modeling Vehicle Merging Behavior in Work Zone Merging Areas During the Merging Implementation Period
Drivers’ Reaction of Warning Messages in Work Zone Termination Areas with Left Turn
Work zone crashes have always drawn public attention. A number of fatalities are recorded every year nationwide within work zone areas. Most existing countermeasures have been dedicated more to the … [Read more...] about Drivers’ Reaction of Warning Messages in Work Zone Termination Areas with Left Turn
