The Transport Accident Commission (TAC) SafeCar study evaluated the impact of three Intelligent Transport System technologies, alone and in combination, on driver performance: Following Distance Warning; Intelligent Speed Adaptation; and a Seatbelt Reminder. Each test vehicle or “SafeCar” was also ...
Learn about what an impact driver is, how it works, and how it's one of the most useful tools you can own.
the road freight transportation sector has received relatively little attention until recently. Additionally, there has been a lack of comprehensive fuel consumption measurement for driver behavior. In other words, previous studies have tended to focus on the effects of driver...

In view of the advancement of zero emission transportation and current discussions on the reliability of nominal passenger car fuel economy, this article considers the procedure for assessing the potential for reducing the fuel consumption of passenger cars by using electric power to operate them. The...

Given the proximity between aggressive driving and risky driving on the road, the evidence collected by this research can be useful for designing occupational safety, and health interventions focused on driver's mental problems and crash prevention. Regular work shifts, measurement of drivers' violence...

A human behavior that adds to traffic is known as “phantom traffic,” which is when a single driver brakes suddenly and unexpectedly, causing a wave of drivers behind them to brake. This creates a ripple effect, causing delays for virtually no reason. Self-driving cars would completely allevi...
