Similarities and differences between naturalistic driving and riding study methodologies Sample Clauses

Similarities and differences between naturalistic driving and riding study methodologies. The core difference between these types of studies is that today the existing knowledge of passenger car movement characteristics and driver behaviour is well advanced. On the contrary there is relatively little knowledge on PTW movement characteristics and rider behaviour. This makes the job of rider behaviour observation more difficult and at the same time more challenging, as the performance measurements cannot be tailored to specific behaviours. There are no set values to describe riding patterns, conflicts, etc. This will be achieved through a synthesis of the existing knowledge on passenger cars, the determination of the differences between a passenger car and a PTW and a trial- and-error procedure. The core similarity between the naturalistic driving and riding study methodologies is that the steps that need to be taken towards the design are similar. In particular, the aim of the experiment has to be defined and the different hypotheses and questions need to be elaborated. Based on the above, the behaviours that one wants to capture should be determined through the appropriate variables and scenarios. This means defining participant characteristics, recording instrumentation, and other data tools. Remaining issues relate to participant recruitment and briefing/training, instrumentation installation and testing, data storage and analysis, legal and ethical issues and other issues related to the conduct and implementation of the study. In general, in naturalistic driving studies extreme values of the scenario variables are avoided (i.e. high risk driver groups) so as not to put the driver at great risk. As noted in the previous section, PTW riders are at greater risk of crashing and seriously injuring themselves than drivers of other vehicles. This results in having to be even more cautious when designing the scenarios (determining rider characteristics and rider recruitment strategies, location characteristics and PTW characteristics), in order to avoid risky situations that could lead to PTW accidents during the study. Such variables can include for example type of road, road surface, weather conditions, participant age, participant experience, riding with passengers etc. Another similarity involves the monitored variables and the capabilities of the instrumentation. For example, in both cases the space and speed trajectory need to be recorded - and in both cases, there is a minimal frequency at which the recording should be made. In addition, a vi...
