A Literature Survey for Investigation into Driver Behavior for Enhancing Road Safety

Abstract

This paper presents a literature survey conducted to investigate driver behavior and its impact on road safety. The study aims to enhance our understanding of the various factors influencing driver behavior and identify potential strategies to improve road safety. The survey encompasses a wide range of scholarly articles, research papers, and reports related to driver behavior, road safety, and human factors in driving. The abstract begins by emphasizing the importance of driver behavior in road safety and highlights the need for comprehensive research in this area. The survey explores key aspects of driver behavior, including risk perception, decision-making processes, cognitive factors, distraction, fatigue, aggression, and compliance with traffic rules and regulations. The findings from these studies are summarized, providing insights into the underlying causes and consequences of different driver behaviors. The literature survey also examines the effectiveness of various interventions and countermeasures aimed at modifying driver behavior and reducing the occurrence of accidents. These interventions include educational programs, awareness campaigns, driver training, advanced driver assistance systems, and policy interventions. The review evaluates the impact of these interventions on driver behavior and their overall effectiveness in improving road safety. In conclusion, this literature survey serves as a valuable resource for understanding driver behavior and its implications for road safety. It highlights the multifaceted nature of driver behavior, considering various factors that influence driving performance and decision-making. The findings from this survey can inform the development of evidence-based strategies and interventions to enhance road safety by targeting specific aspects of driver behavior.
