“…(WHN) clip is occluded rather than frozen prior to the hazard. Frozen clips do not discriminate between experienced and inexperienced drivers (Vogel et al, 2003), while occluded clips do (Jackson et al, 2009). This suggests that the discriminating factor is the amount and pertinence of information that the driver has when the clip ends.…”

Typical hazard perception tests often confound multiple processes in their responses. The current study tested hazard prediction in isolation to assess whether this component can discriminate between novice and experienced drivers. A variant of the hazard perception test, based on the Situation Awareness Global Assessment Technique, found experienced drivers to outperform novices across three experiments suggesting that the act of predicting an imminent hazard is a crucial part of the hazard-perception process. Furthermore three additional hypotheses were tested in these experiments. First, performance was compared across clips of different length. There was marginal evidence that novice drivers' performance suffered with the longest clips, but experienced drivers' performance did not, suggesting that experienced drivers find hazard prediction less effortful. Secondly, predictive accuracy was found to be dependent on the temporal proximity of visual precursors to the hazard. Thirdly the relationship between the hazard and its precursor was found to be important, with less obvious precursors improving the discrimination between novice and experience drivers. These findings demonstrate that a measure of hazard prediction, which is less confounded by the influence of risk appraisal than simple response time measures, can still discriminate between novice and experienced drivers. Application of this methodology under different conditions can produce insights into the underlying processes that may be at work, whilst also providing an alternative test of driver skill in relation to the detection of hazards.3

“…Vogel et al (2003) found that highly experienced drivers were no better than novices at predicting the development of traffic scenarios from filmed clips that froze on the final frame. Jackson, Chapman and Crundall (2009) argued that the final frozen frame provided more visual information than novices drivers would normally have.…”

“…One relatively recent development in hazard perception assessment is the rise of a new measure: hazard prediction. This method has evolved from early versions (Jackson, Chapman and Crundall, 2009;McGowan and Banbury, 2004;Vogel et al, 2003) based on the Situation Awareness Global Assessment Technique (Endsley, 2000), into a more refined challenger to the traditional hazard perception methodology (Crundall, 2016;Crundall & Kroll, 2018;Ventsislavova et al, 2019). The basic premise behind hazard prediction is that the safest drivers do not wait for a hazard to happen and then respond, but instead try to predict what will happen based on clues in the visual scene (i.e.…”
