Abstract Human behavior and interaction in road traffic is highly complex, with many open scientific questions of high applied importance, not least relation to recent development efforts toward automated vehicles. In parallel, decades have seen major advances cognitive neuroscience models human decision-making, but these mainly been simplified laboratory tasks. Here, we demonstrate how variabl...

A significant percentage of pedestrians walk in social groups (friends, families, or acquaintances who together). Although patterns generated by interactions among group members have been shown to affect crowd dynamics, studies on the effect at different crossing phases under low pedestrian density are limited. This study aims comprehensively examine influence size and sex composition pedestria...

Heavy vehicle-train collisions have the potential to be catastrophic in terms of fatalities, environmental disaster, delays in the rail network, and extensive damage to property. Heavy vehicles, such as 'Road Trains' and 'B-Doubles', are vulnerable road users due to their size and mass and require specific risk management solutions. The present study aimed to capture the experiences of heavy ve...

Pedestrians account for 10-30% of all road accident fatalities in western countries, and therefore efforts to improve pedestrian safety are of major importance. Research can support these efforts in various ways, particularly by studying road crossing patterns, and by exploring pedestrian compliance rates to safety laws and guidelines. This paper focuses on pedestrian crossing behavior at round...

An example of aggressive driving behavior is the driver who immediately commits a violation when passing through an unsignalized intersection. Aggressive may endanger other road users. Numerous studies have demonstrated that lowering should lower number fatal and serious traffic accidents. Therefore, it crucial to concentrate on significance behavior, especially at intersections. The purpose th...
