Research on the Relationship Between Dynamic Message Sign Control Strategies and Driving Safety in Freeway Work Zones
Several studies have researched the effect of dynamic message signs (DMSs) on the driving safety in work zones. However, only a few studies have examined the design of DMS control strategies in work … [Read more...] about Research on the Relationship Between Dynamic Message Sign Control Strategies and Driving Safety in Freeway Work Zones
Exploring the Effects of the Location of the Lane-End Sign and Traffic Volume on Multistage Lane-Changing Behaviors in Work Zone Areas: A Driving Simulator-Based Study
The lane-changing behavior in work zone areas has special features than a regular lane change as the former is usually compulsively motivated involving complicated cognitive processes with drivers’ … [Read more...] about Exploring the Effects of the Location of the Lane-End Sign and Traffic Volume on Multistage Lane-Changing Behaviors in Work Zone Areas: A Driving Simulator-Based Study
Socio-Demographic Impacts on Lane-Changing Action Time and Distance in Work Zone with Drivers’ Smart Advisory System
A lane-changing behavior is an important component of traffic simulation. Lane-changing actions are normally confined to the decision-making process of the task, and the action itself is assumed as an … [Read more...] about Socio-Demographic Impacts on Lane-Changing Action Time and Distance in Work Zone with Drivers’ Smart Advisory System
