Modeling drivers’ speed selection as a trade-off behavior
Accident Analysis & Prevention, 05/04/09

Tarko AP - The study focuses on four-lane rural and suburban roads in Indiana, USA. The behavior of two types of drivers is modeled. The selection of test sites was such that the roads and other local characteristics varied across the studied sites while the population of drivers could be assumed as the same. The density of intersections, land development along the road, and the presence of sidewalks were the identified prominent risk perception factors. Another interesting finding is that the speed limit seems to encourage slow drivers to drive faster and fast drivers to drive slower.
