Car Driving Behaviour on Road Curves: A Study Case in Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia

Abstract: Abstract. The World Health Organization (WHO) predicted that in 2020, road accidents will become the third cause of deaths in the world. Several factors contribute to road accidents, among them are human error, speeding, irregularities in road design and period of driving (either nighttime or daytime). In road design, horizontal curves are of particular interest to the designer, given that accidents are very likely to occur at such locations if drivers lose control of their vehicles due to inappropriate speed … Show more

A road accident is generally defined as an unanticipated event caused by a lack of driving control until an object collides or causes a car collision, resulting in collateral harm, driver, passenger, and other road user injuries, or both [2].

“…Road accidents occur when traffic conflicts between vehicular movements which can cause delay and traffic congestion [1]. Rohani [2] mentioned that human error, traffic, vehicle and road conditions, and the surrounding environment have been determined as key factors that influence driving behaviour, which can in turn contribute to road accidents.…”
