Driving Simulators

Reducing Liability in Urban Work Zones by Quantifying Risks and Enhancing Layout Design and Regulations

Few researchers have investigated work zone layout design, noting that it does not adequately mitigate the risks associated with lane-changing behaviors. This gap may create unsafe conditions and … [Read more...] about Reducing Liability in Urban Work Zones by Quantifying Risks and Enhancing Layout Design and Regulations

Improving Work Zone Safety: Integrating VR-CARLA Co-Simulation and Eye Tracking for Behavior Analysis of Drivers Around Work Zones

Ensuring safety around roadway work zones is difficult which is evident by the fact that despite considerable safety measures, drivers and workers are still exposed to risks. An incomplete … [Read more...] about Improving Work Zone Safety: Integrating VR-CARLA Co-Simulation and Eye Tracking for Behavior Analysis of Drivers Around Work Zones

How Cognitive Distraction Affects Motorway Short-Term Work Zone Safety Along Curves: A Driving Simulation Study

This study investigates how cognitive distraction affects driver behaviour on a two-lane motorway reduced to one lane (the left) in a short-term work zone along a left-hand curve. Forty-two … [Read more...] about How Cognitive Distraction Affects Motorway Short-Term Work Zone Safety Along Curves: A Driving Simulation Study

A Comprehensive Study on CMV Safety Using ITS in Work Zones on Freeways and Arterials

Work zones pose significant safety challenges on highways, with Commercial Motor Vehicles (CMVs) being particularly susceptible to higher risk due to their larger size, slower … [Read more...] about A Comprehensive Study on CMV Safety Using ITS in Work Zones on Freeways and Arterials

Using Eye-Tracking for Traffic Control Signage Design at Highway Work Zone

This paper discusses the application of Eye Tracking (ET) technologies for researchers to understand a driver’s perception of signage at the highway work zone. Combining ET within a screen-based … [Read more...] about Using Eye-Tracking for Traffic Control Signage Design at Highway Work Zone

Effects of Cooperative Vehicle Infrastructure System on Driver’s Attention––a Simulator Study on Work Zone

To clarify the effect of the cooperative vehicle infrastructure system (CVIS) application on drivers’ visual performance, a total of 37 drivers were recruited to drive the simulated roadway in a … [Read more...] about Effects of Cooperative Vehicle Infrastructure System on Driver’s Attention––a Simulator Study on Work Zone
