“…Two of them are very close to 67.0% standard (Sign no.3 and 19 with comprehension score 66.0%) Considering that 22 out of 37 road warning signs have comprehension score below 67.0%, it is clear that road warning signs in Jakarta are not easily understood by drivers. It is not surprising since similar findings were also found in prior studies (Banares et al, 2018;Choocharukula and Sriroongvikrai, 2017;Yuan et al, 2014;Sodikin et al, 2013;Kirmizioglu and Hasan, 2009;Al-Madani and Al-Janahi, 2002). A low comprehension level, as results of this study, signified that road warning signs in Jakarta are not sufficiently reliable as designed.…”

Paper ini bertujuan untuk menyajikan hasil kajian awal mengenai pengukuran tingkat efektivitas rambu peringatan jalan raya Jakarta berdasarkan survei kepada para pengendara. Dalam kajian awal ini, diambil responden sebanyak 100 orang pengendara yang berdomisili di daerah Jabodetabek. Sebanyak 37 rambu lalu lintas yang digolongkan sebagai rambu peringatan (warning signs) diukur efektivitasnya dengan indikator nilai comprehension level sesuai dengan standar ISO 3684. Satu set kuesioner berisi 37 pertanyaan mengenai efektivitas rambu lalu lintas disebarkan kepada 100 pengendara. Nilai comprehension level untuk masing-masing rambu lalu lintas peroleh dengan menghitung persentase jumlah jawaban yang benar untuk masing-masing rambu. Hasil kajian pendahuluan ini menunjukkan bahwa nilai comprehension level sebanyak 22 dari 37 rambu peringatan berada di bawah 67%, sebagaimana acuan standar yang diberikan oleh ISO 3684. Kajian awal ini menunjukkan bahwa sebagai besar rambu lalu lintas di DKI Jakarta belum efektif untuk menyampai pesan peringatan (warning) bagi pengendara bermotor.

“…Looking at gender as shown in Figure 4, female drivers consistently displayed higher comprehension levels compared to males. This finding contradicts past studies conducted in Asia [6] [8]. Zhang and Chan [9] suggested that this finding could be due to the congenital difference in space perception or intellectual functioning or different cultures and exposure rates to signs between males and females.…”

“…The study found that age, gender, and driving years had no significant influence on sign comprehension. However, drivers with higher educational backgrounds presented better comprehension of warning signs than those with lower educational backgrounds [6]. Katz et al [7] recruited 103 participants to investigate comprehension for several types of speed management signs including animal presence warnings involving a flashing beacon, regulatory and advisory warnings, variable speed limit signs with text, and animation.…”

Distracted driving occurs when a driver diverts the primary attention from driving to another task. Using mobile devices such as a cellphone for texting, calls, or other manipulation while driving has the highest potential for distraction because it combines both forms of distractions, manual, visual, and cognitive. Some states in the US have posted slogans including "W8 2 TXT, it's a law", "Don't Drive inTEXTicated", "PLS dnt txt n drv", "Don't tempt F8 that txt can w8", and "DNT TXT & DRV" along highways to convey the dangers and laws regarding distracted driving to minimize incidences of distracted-related crashes This study surveyed 347 people using the five distraction slogans in a college town. The results showed that younger drivers have a higher level of comprehension compared to older drivers. Further, the results showed that drivers with university education or more years of driving experience have a higher comprehension level of distraction signs compared to their counterparts.
