“…El grupo de conductores inexpertos con los que se trabajó tenían de 0 a 2 años de experiencia en conducción, por lo que se evidencia en los resultados obtenidos antes de la formación el exceso de confianza al identificar escenarios de riesgo en las carreteras de montaña. En [24] se ha demostrado que la experiencia en conducción es clave para identificar señales visuales cuando los instigadores de peligro están ocultos por el entorno natural, es decir, cuando los elementos de peligro están indirectamente relacionados con el peligro real. Los conductores experimentados anticipan el peligro mucho antes, en comparación con los inexpertos, justamente por los riesgos ya percibidos durante su trayectoria en la conducción.…”

El artículo presenta la aplicación de tres metodologías que buscan mejorar la percepción del peligro de conductores inexpertos en carreteras de montaña, mediante retroalimentación basada en fotografías, videos cortos y simulación de recorridos reales. Los escenarios de las tres metodologías se evaluaron con la metodología iRAP y estos resultados se compararon con la percepción del peligro percibida por los conductores inexpertos. La metodología iRAP califica las carreteras de 1 a 5 estrellas, donde 1 es la más peligrosa y 5 es la más segura. A tres grupos en formación se les aplicó una evaluación inicial, luego un proceso de formación mediante retroalimentación y, finalmente, una evaluación final. La aplicación de fotografías mejoró la percepción del peligro en carreteras más seguras (3 a 4 estrellas). Mediante videos, las mujeres reaccionaron mejor a la formación en percepción del peligro en carreteras más peligrosas (1 a 2 estrellas). Al aplicar simulación de recorridos reales, no hubo mejoras en la percepción del peligro. Se concluye que la aplicación de fotografías y videos son válidos, pero es preciso reforzar la formación de los conductores inexpertos para identificar elementos instigadores de riesgo en carreteras de montaña.

“…Critically, accident data have shown that in many cases, drivers that are involved in automobile crashes do not act too late but do not act at all to avoid the collision (Guo et al 2010), suggesting that they simply did not attend to the event that ultimately resulted in a crash. Detection of potential hazards is particular difficult when the road environment is complex and unusual and the cognitive load is relatively high, for example when drivers are relatively inexperienced or drive in a foreign city (Kahana-Levy et al 2019;Underwood et al 2002).…”

Self-explaining roads: What does visual cognition tell us about designing safer roads?

In 1995, Theeuwes and Godthelp published a paper called “self-explaining roads,” in which they argued for the development of a new concept for approaching safe road design. Since this publication, self-explaining roads (SER) became one of the leading principles in road design worldwide. The underlying notion is that roads should be designed in such a way that road users immediately know how to behave and what to expect on these roads. In other words, the environment should be designed such that it elicits adequate and safe behavior. The present paper describes in detail the theoretical basis for the idea of SER and explains why this has such a large effect on human behavior. It is argued that the notion is firmly rooted in the theoretical framework of statistical learning, subjective road categorization and the associated expectations. The paper illustrates some successful implementation and describes recent developments worldwide.

“…There have been a number of studies showing driver’s eye movement characteristics. Hills et al [20,21] found that driver’s eye movements change with the level of driving experience. It is not easy for novice drivers to apply appropriate eye-movement patterns to match the hazardousness of the road.…”

Driver hazard perception is highly related to involvement in traffic accidents, and vision is the most important sense with which we perceive risk. Therefore, it is of great significance to explore the characteristics of drivers’ eye movements to promote road safety. This study focuses on analyzing the changes of drivers’ eye-movement characteristics in anxiety. We used various materials to induce drivers’ anxiety, and then conducted the real driving experiments and driving simulations to collect drivers’ eye-movement data. Then, we compared the differences between calm and anxiety on drivers’ eye-movement characteristics, in order to extract the key eye-movement features. The least squares method of change point analysis was carried out to detect the time and locations of sudden changes in eye movement characteristics. The results show that the least squares method is effective for identifying eye-movement changes of female drivers in anxiety. It was also found that changes in road environments could cause a significant increase in fixation count and fixation duration for female drivers, such as in scenes with traffic accidents or sharp curves. The findings of this study can be used to recognize unexpected events in road environment and improve the geometric design of curved roads. This study can also be used to develop active driving warning systems and intelligent human–machine interactions in vehicles. This study would be of great theoretical significance and application value for improving road traffic safety.
