In driving, poor hazard anticipation would provide drivers less time to prepare an appropriate response, increasing the urgency of the situation and generating more stress. Assuming this, the current study seeks to determine whether a predictable road hazard triggers hazard anticipation in drivers that can mitigate the ensuing stress response, and whether the stress response is influenced by driving experience. In a simulated road environment, a cue was used to trigger hazard anticipation, and a road hazard to induce a stress response. Heart rate, pupil diameter, driving speed, subjective stress, arousal, and negative emotions, were retrieved from 36 drivers who all faced the cue followed by the hazard (i.e. a predictable hazard), the cue only, and the hazard only. In the light of work on defensive behaviors, the findings indicate that a predictable hazard triggers hazard anticipation detectable via (1) freezing behavior—characterized by cardiac deceleration—(2) anticipatory pupil d.

This paper presents a literature survey conducted to investigate driver behavior and its impact on road safety. The study aims to enhance our understanding of the various factors influencing driver behavior and identify potential strategies to improve road safety. The survey encompasses a wide range of scholarly articles, research papers, and reports related to driver behavior, road safety, and human factors in driving. The abstract begins by emphasizing the importance of driver behavior in road safety and highlights the need for comprehensive research in this area. The survey explores key aspects of driver behavior, including risk perception, decision-making processes, cognitive factors, distraction, fatigue, aggression, and compliance with traffic rules and regulations. The findings from these studies are summarized, providing insights into the underlying causes and consequences of different driver behaviors. The literature survey also examines the effectiveness of various interventions and countermeasures aimed at modifying driver behavior and reducing the occurrence of accidents. These interventions include educational programs, awareness campaigns, driver training, advanced driver assistance systems, and policy interventions. The review evaluates the impact of these interventions on driver behavior and their overall effectiveness in improving road safety. In conclusion, this literature survey serves as a valuable resource for understanding driver behavior and its implications for road safety. It highlights the multifaceted nature of driver behavior, considering various factors that influence driving performance and decision-making. The findings from this survey can inform the development of evidence-based strategies and interventions to enhance road safety by targeting specific aspects of driver behavior.
