Abstract:

The safety focus area of the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) 2 has launched studies to understand how drivers interact with and adapt to the vehicle, the traffic environment, the roadway characteristics, the traffic control devices, and environmental conditions. By assessing the collision risk associated with each of these elements and interactions, the studies will support the development of effective countermeasures. This article includes two inserts: SHRP 2 Research: Asking Why to Learn How; and The 100-Car Naturalistic Driving Study.
