Abstract EN
Drivers’ decisions to either slow and stop or go at the onset of yellow signal impact on intersection safety.
This novel study contributes to the new classification scheme for drivers.
Two driving style indexes (i.e., the driving reliability index and dangerous driving index) are adopted, along with other known factors to analyze stop/go decision-making.
Initially, the driving reliability index is extracted using a Hidden Markov Model (HMM).
The dangerous driving index is calculated based on statistics extracted from dangerous driving records.
A latent class logit model is then proposed to explore the factors which influence drivers’ decisions.
Drivers are classified for analytical purposes into “low-risk” and “high-risk” categories according to driving styles and age.
Results indicate that those considering “low-risk” tend to stop, while drivers considering “high-risk” are inclined to pass intersections.
Furthermore, distractions from cell phones have different influences on each group of drivers.
These findings help to determine driver preferences and may be used to formulate strategies to reduce unsafe driving occurring at signalized intersections.
