Economic Externalities of Relative Accident Rates between SUV vs. Passenger Cars
| 项目名称： | Economic Externalities of Relative Accident Rates between SUV vs. Passenger Cars |
| 摘要： | This research project is part of the annual Mid-Atlantic Universities Transportation Center research grant. Driver distraction has always been an issue of major concern. The growing number of accidents due to complexity in the road side environment is considered a major problem. Driver distraction can either be due to on-road or in-vehicle factors, such as cell phones, stereos, conversations with other passengers, etc. The objective of this research is to assess the extent of distraction caused by billboards by analyzing the driver's eye movement in the presence of billboards. The analysis will be carried out by a simulator. The results will give an idea of the safety effects of billboards on drivers. |
