Travel choice behavior is an important determinant in traffic and subject to human imperfection and bounded rationality. In decision-making processes travelers seldom act perfectly rational. Traffic models and traffic network management measure could become more realistic and effective, if travelers' (dis)abilities, reasoning and perception are better understood and taken into consideration. The aims of this study were: (1) to determine travelers' ability to detect changing traffic intensities and traffic light setting on their trip, and (2) to determine how travelers estimate the value of such changes. The survey results show that travelers are more sensitive to changes in traffic light settings than to changes in traffic intensities, but in general unable to observe all changes in traffic conditions. Besides, a relative large group of travelers perceive the opposite of what they actually experience. I. INTRODUCTION imited cognitive abilities cause imperfections in traveler's choice behavior which, to a certain extent, are regarded as systematic and predictable [1, 2]. As a result, travelers do not always behave in a rational way which leads to suboptimal decisions. However, many models of travel choice behavior used in traffic modeling are based on standard economics and assume that people are rational decision makers and above all perfectly informed about the available choice alternatives. In other words, they can calculate the value of the different options available, they are able to derive the optimal choice, and they are cognitively unhindered in weighting the implications of each potential choice [3-5]. In reality, people have limited knowledge and constrained cognitive abilities, leading to prejudiced reasoning and certain randomness in behavior and choice outcomes [1]. In contrast with standard economics,
