運転特性の違いから見た危機意識の実験的研究 : バーチャルリアリティを用いた交通事故シミュレーション

Abstract

The purpose of this research is the development of a traffic accident simulator, and using this simulator to investigate danger recognition and the characteristic of the actions of drivers driving a car and a scooter. The main conclusions are as follows. 1) There is a tendency for the subjects to feel danger more when riding a scooter compared with the case when they drive a car. That is, if they drive a car, the consciousness of danger will be lower. 2) When the vehicles type which they usually use and the vehicles which they drove in the experiment were the same, cautiousness becomes lower and the subjects had the tendency to use the brake less. 3) The subject who was always driving the car had a tendency to evaluate whether their situation was a dangerous one from the end result, where as the subject who was always driving the scooter had the tendency to evaluate whether their situation was a dangerous one from the situation itself.
