▼ Driving a car is one of the most common activities that we take part in everyday, however previous research has indicated that there is a gap in our current knowledge about how familiarity affects our everyday
driving behaviour. Many of the studies that examine everyday
driving behaviours are conducted off-road through the use of
driving simulators and self-report questionnaires. The objective of this present study was therefore to investigate the role of familiarity on everyday
driving behaviours during on-road drives. Additionally, this thesis sought to to examine the relationship between familiarity and driver perceptions such as anxiety and risk. The relationship between familiarity and speed choices was also observed and finally, the impact of familiarity on a driver’s ability to recall important information about a drive was investigated. Data was collected through the use of video and self-report questionnaires. In total, 30 participants took took part in two on-road drives; one which they were familiar with and another that they found unfamiliar. Results indicated that speed choices were affected by how familiar a driver was with the environment, however no relationship was found between familiarity and driver perceptions of anxiety and risk, or recollection. Further research that builds on the present findings could prove to be beneficial for future approaches towards specific interventions aimed at reducing serious vehicle accidents.

▼ Impaired driving is a major source of preventable death in Canada, especially among young adults. Although the effects of alcohol on driving are well known, the impact of driving under the influence of cannabis has not been studied as thoroughly. This human laboratory study examines the impact of an acute dose of smoked cannabis on driving-related skills among young drivers who use cannabis regularly. Participants were weekly smokers between the ages of 19 and 25 years who have had an Ontario class G or G2 license for at least twelve months. Measures of driving simulator performance, cognition, mood, and motor skills were collected before and after a single dose of smoked cannabis containing 12.5% á 9- tetrahydrocannabinol (á 9-THC). Although the data presented are based on an interim analysis of an ongoing study, some measures of subjective drug effects, objective physical measures, and driving simulator performance were found to be significantly altered after drug administration.

Meta-Analysis: developing the cognitive assessment tool – Chapter 5. Pilot testing: evaluating the cognitive assessment tool – Chapter 6. General discussion.
The deleterious effect of dementia on driving performance has been well established. Whilst all individuals with this disease will eventually need to cease driving, simply having a diagnosis of dementia is not sufficient for preclusion from driving. Instead, determinations regarding fitness to drive are left to medical practitioners. Whilst there are medical fitness to drive guidelines to support practitioners in their decision-making, there is currently no standardised objective in-office assessment which can be used to reliably make judgements regarding driving capacity for individuals with dementia. Due to the relationship between dementia and declining cognitive function, and cognitive function and driving, cognitive tests have been proposed as an appropriate tool to fill this gap.This thesis aimed to examine the current method of determining fitness to drive in Australia, and develop an evidence based alternative form of assessment that could be utilisedin-office by front line clinicians. These aims were achieved through four studies, which examined 1) practitioners'perspectives on the current system, 2) a systematic review of the literature into cognitive testing and driving in dementia, 3) a meta-analysis to provide empirical evidence for the formation of a potential composite cognitive test battery and, 4) a pilot experimental study investigating the validity of the proposed assessment. The results of the survey study suggested that front line practitioners did not find the current guidelines adequate, with the majority calling for a more objective assessment to assist with making decisions on driving capacity for individuals with dementia. The systematic review demonstrated that there is insufficient evidence to support the clinical use of either a single cognitive test or tests from a single cognitive domain. The review did, however, provide evidence for the use of composite batteries which combine multiple cognitive tests from the various domains important to driving. To date there has been little consensus on which tests should be included in this battery. Building on the results of the systematic review, the meta- xviii analysis provided empirical support for a proposed fitness to drive battery for individuals specifically with Alzheimer's Disease which included:the Mini Mental Status Examination, all conditions of the Rey Complex FigureTest, and the Trail Making Test Part A and Part B. This proposed battery also aimed to take into account practical considerations relevant to front line clinical practice. Finally, the results from the pilot study provided promising preliminary evidence that the battery proposed by the…

▼ This study examined the effect of mindfulness on
driving behaviour, and the possible mediating effects of a number of well-being measures. Specifically, the research aimed to determine (1) if higher levels of mindfulness would lead to safer
driving practices and (2) if there was a relationship between mindfulness and safe
driving, whether this was mediated by well-being measures including self-control, emotion regulation, happiness, life satisfaction, job satisfaction and work engagement. Participants included 216 employees from 16 organizations. They all completed ‘the mindfulness, wellbeing and driving’ questionnaire, which involved measures of mindfulness, intentions to violate traffic rules, self-reported number of traffic incidences in the previous 12 months (fines, near misses and crashes), as well as the well-being measures mentioned above. First, a strong correlation between increased levels of mindfulness and safer
driving practices was found, including a decreased likelihood of texting. Further initial correlations also demonstrated relationships between mindfulness and all the well-being measures. As mindfulness increased, levels of all the well-being measures increased, with the exception of happiness. However, when mediation analysis was performed only self-control and happiness were found to mediate the relationship between mindfulness and safer
driving, while the effect of emotion regulation, life and job satisfaction and work engagement were not found to be significant mediators. The role of self-control as a mediator in the mindfulness safer
driving relationship supported previous research. Increased levels of attention, awareness and emotion regulation are all qualities associated with increased levels of mindfulness, which have also been demonstrated to relate to safer
driving practices.
While happiness was found to positively mediate the relationship between mindfulness and safer
driving practices, interestingly, the relationship between mindfulness and happiness was opposite to what was expected. As levels of mindfulness increased, levels of happiness decreased. This may have been due to the happiness measure, which contained eudaimonic and hedonic factors. Hedonic factors have been considered less indicative of life satisfaction and overall well-being, and run opposite to the principles underlying mindfulness. Despite this, increased levels of happiness were still found to increase safer
driving practices. These findings will hopefully ignite more research efforts to be directed towards examining the effects of mindfulness interventions on
driving practices, and overall social and occupational well-being.

▼ Distracted driving continues to remain a cause of concern for a number of bodies, including government agencies, traffic safety advocacy groups and law enforcement agencies, because of its traffic safety risks. The driving simulator continues to be popular with researchers in collecting data on performance variables that provide scientific knowledge of the effects of distracted driving. Several of these performance variables can be used to quantify a single distracting effect, resulting in a multivariate dataset. A literature review of related studies revealed that researchers overwhelmingly use univariate (single and multiple) tests to analyze the resulting dataset. Performing multiple univariate tests on a multivariate dataset results in inflated Type-I error rates, and could result in inaccurately concluding that there is a distracting effect when there may not be. Researchers also provided very little or no justification for the selection of variables that were used for the univariate analysis. Being able to correctly identify a set of variables to be used to research a single distracting effect is critical in that different variables may lead to different conclusions of significant findings or not. The primary objective of this dissertation was to develop a sound statistical basis for correctly identifying a set of variables and also to demonstrate the benefits of adopting a multivariate gate-keeper test in distracted driving studies. This was demonstrated with an experiment where 67 drivers participated in a repeated measures driving simulator experiment. 14 commonly used performance variables were used as the multivariate response variables. The corresponding data were analyzed using univariate tests, and multivariate gate-keeper tests. The results indicate that ignoring the multivariate structure and performing multiple univariate tests, as has been found to be prevalent in past studies, will lead to inflated Type-I error rates and potentially misleading conclusions. The procedure developed in this study also led to the development of sound statistical basis for the selection of variables that can be best used to account for the distracting effect of the texting and phone call activities that were investigated. The findings of this study have significant educational value to the body of knowledge on distracted driving studies and any other studies that analyze multiple dependent variables for a single factor.

▼ Lane change manoeuvres are known to vary widely in lane change duration. This is thought to be an effect of the surrounding vehicles and personal preference of drivers. However, little is known about the effect on steering behaviour during a lane change manoeuvre. Moreover, the relation of the effect of traffic to inter- and intra-driver variability is unknown. This study focuses on quantifying inter- and intra-driver variability in lane change duration and steering behaviour during lane changes in two different traffic scenarios. In an exploratory study, 21 participants drove 30 lane change manoeuvres in a 6 DoF moving base driving simulator. Two scenarios were used: a closing gap in the target lane and a constant gap in the target lane, with 15 repetitions per scenario. The results show high inter-driver and intra-driver variability, for both lane change duration (M=6.34 s SD-inter=0.90 s SD-intra=1.26 s) and steering behaviour (e.g. maximum steering wheel angle M=4.14 deg SD-inter=1.62 deg SD-intra=1.34 deg). The effect of the scenario was not significant for lane change duration and maximum steering wheel angles. Additionally, it was shown that lane change duration only has a medium correlation with the maximum steering wheel angle (Pearson R(585)=-.48, pless0.001). Furthermore, the mean and variability of the lane change duration decreased when lane changes were initiated with a shorter distance to the slow lead vehicle. Concluding, the lane change duration does not fully determine steering behaviour during a lane change, making it an unsuitable metric for determining human-like lane change trajectories. It is therefore proposed to create trajectories based on steering behaviour. It seems that drivers exhibit high variability in lane change behaviour when spatio-temporal criticality with respect to traffic is low. Higher spatio-temporal criticality limits the mean and variability of the lane change duration. Future work should determine whether this variability is the result of driver preference or indifference. Additionally, future work should implement and test human-like lane change trajectories based on steering behaviour as opposed to lane change duration.

▼ The objective of this thesis is to analyse driving behaviour and to characterize the effectsof an efficient way of driving, termed eco-driving, that enables the driver to reduce fuelconsumption and CO2emissions.The approach used to assess driving style is a collection of data from a CAN bus of acar equipped with OBD-II (on-board diagnostic) system. The driving experiment wasperformed for nine drivers who drove in a normal way or regular driving style and onedriver was an eco-driver who drove in an economical driving style. The driving routewas approximately 18.7 kms (which took between 25 to 30 minutes) in Halmstad city,Sweden.The drivers are compared using a statistical analysis of the driving parameters such as,speed, accelerator (gas pedal) and brake pressure, which are obtained from CAN busdata. A hierarchical clustering algorithm also used to classify the drivers based on theaverage result of the signals.In the results, a driving difference between the eco-driver and the normal drivers is visi-ble, most of the normal drivers have more or less similar behaviour. The average speed ofthe eco-driver lower than the normal drivers and the accelerator (gas pedal) result is alsoshown less usage by the eco-driver than the normal drivers. On the other hand, the eco-driver has braked more often than the normal drivers, but gently. Nevertheless, differenttraffic conditions during the experiment obstructs comparisons between the drivers.

▼ Rationale:
Driving is a fundamental instrumental activity of daily living (IADL) and occupational therapists need practical, effective tools to evaluate clients’ fitness to drive. To be proficient at
driving, one needs competency on the operational (manipulating pedals, steering wheel), tactical (negotiating obstacles), and strategic (navigation) levels. Few studies explore the strategic level. It is beneficial to determine if the strategic level of
driving can be evaluated without an expensive, lengthy on-road test. Purpose: This study compared on-road
driving performance during wayfinding using paper directions compared to GPS. A second question compared performance between on-road
driving and
driving in an interactive
driving simulator (IDS). Typical clinical assessments tools, specifically the Trail Making Test B, Assessment of Motor & Process Skills (AMPS), and Useful Field of View (UFOV ®) were also compared with
driving outcomes. Design: Counterbalancing testing order of simulated
driving and on-road
driving of two unfamiliar routes yielded eight conditions. Participants: Participants were 24 volunteer drivers, ages 18-45 years. Methods: Each participant was assessed by the clinical assessments, navigated via printed directions on the
driving simulator, and drove two routes on the road using either GPS guidance and printed directions.
Driving performance was measured by the same evaluator using the same measuring tool. Analysis:
Driving performance were compared with box plots, scatter plots, and a paired t-test with a 95% confidence interval. Clinical assessment scores were compared to
driving scores on the simulator and on-road assessments using scatter plots. The two independent sample t-tests comparing groups defined by order was not statistically significant (p=.734; p=.805; p=.690). Results: The means of scores of participants wayfinding on road with GPS were significantly better than when using printed directions (p = .024; 95% CI = 1.58-20.7 points). Nineteen of 24 participants had better
driving performance scores when using GPS. For participants using printed directions, the difference in mean scores for those
driving in the simulator compared to on-road was not statistically significant (p=0.058). Outcomes of the clinical assessments did not have a strong relationship with any
driving performance. Discussion: Performance using a GPS for wayfinding results in improved
driving performance over printed directions. Overall,
driving performance during wayfinding on an interactive
driving simulator was similar to on-road
driving performance, although there was individual variation. Limitations included a homogenous group of healthy participants and the
driving simulator wayfinding was not a duplication of the on road route. This study suggests that wayfinding can be evaluated on an interactive
driving simulator, offering opportunity for assessment of multiple client factors in a controlled environment and potentially reduce the number of individuals who need to proceed to an on road evaluation. …

▼ Distracted
driving (
driving while performing a secondary task) is the cause of many collisions. Most research on distracted
driving has focused on operating a cell-phone, but distracted
driving can include
driving while eating, conversing with passengers or listening to music or audiobooks. Although the research has focused on the deleterious effects of distraction, there may be situations where distraction (specifically audiobooks) improves
driving performance. Mental underload is associated with an increased collision risk and it is possible that secondary tasks can help alleviate underload while
driving. In my Master’s thesis, I conducted three experiments where licensed drivers were tested in a
driving simulator on roads of differing complexity. Road complexity was manipulated by increasing traffic, scenery, and the number of curves in the drive. Participants either simply drove, drove while listening to an audiobook, and drove while engaging in a handsfree conversation.
Driving performance was measured in terms of braking response time to hazards, average speed, standard deviation of speed, and standard deviation of lane positioning. Overall,
driving performance was better in simple
driving environments, where audiobooks were found to lead to lower hazard reaction time and speeds closer to the posted speed limit compared to simply
driving and
driving while engaging in a handsfree conversation. Furthermore, it was found that secondary tasks lead to lower reaction time to vehicles, but higher to pedestrians.

▼ The purpose of this study was to test the relative efficacy of theoretically- and empirically-based rational and emotional online video advertisements at decreasing alcohol impaired (AI)
driving intent and willingness and to determine the contributions of rational and emotional decision-making factors to AI
driving intent and willingness within a college sample. It was hypothesized that: 1) participants in the advertisement conditions would report significantly lower AI
driving intent and willingness post-advertisement than the participants in the no advertisement condition; 2) participants in the emotional advertisement condition would report significantly lower AI
driving intent and willingness post-advertisement than participants in the rational advertisement condition; and 3) rational and emotional decision-making factors would predict an independent and unique portion of the variance in AI
driving intent and willingness. Unexpectedly, rational and emotional advertisement conditions did not significantly differ on AI
driving intent or willingness post-advertisement. However, significant interaction effects of advertisement condition by AI
driving intent and advertisement condition by AI
driving willingness over time were revealed, with planned contrasts indicating pre- to post-advertisement AI
driving intent and willingness decreased in the advertisement conditions and increased in the no advertisement condition. Findings indicated that 27% to 36% of the variance in AI
driving intent and willingness was accounted for by rational and emotional decision-making factors alone. Findings establish the efficacy of rational and emotional advertisements at influencing AI
driving intent and willingness and support the independent contribution of these factors to AI
driving intent and willingness within the college population.

▼ Due to the changing society in Taiwan, R.O.C., values are badly twisted. Many teenagers make use of holiday nights to gather on highways to conduct dangerous
driving (motorcycle racing). They cause traffic jams and obstruct traffic notoriously. What's worse, they even use violence to attack passengers, on-duty policemen and related government offices. Such behaviors not only break the law but also critically endanger social public security, posing threat to people's lives, bodies and properties. As police plays a role of maintaining social public security, the crackdowns and control of dangerous
driving behaviors are important duties exercised by police.
Dangerous
driving control projects mainly adopt a "top-down" policy implementation model. The model emphasizes policy makers' decisions on policy goals and their leading position in directing actions. Basically, policy implementers are required to execute policy makers' will, that is, carry out supervisors' intentions and goals loyally in a strictly obedient top-down bureaucratic system. The model on one hand emphasizes a closely linked chain of orders and supervisors' control abilities; on the other hand, it advocates policy makers' reasonable design of policy implementation structure and regulations.
Besides, the adoption of top-down implementation model usually emphasizes supervisors' goal-setting and project-planning abilities and overlooks lower-level implementers' motives, intentions and values. As it underestimates local officials' abilities in influencing policy goals, would it neglect a counterproductive effect exerted by policy implementers? While emphasizing laws and regulations, does it provide implementers with any discretion? Could it become a policy implementation game?
As regards the bottom-up implementation model, it addresses the need of providing lower-level officials or local implementation organizations with discretion, which enables them to make suitable policies against a complicated environment. This means proper authorization for lower-level departments and subordinates to participate in policy making and implementation. In the model, supervisors or policy makers are not policy leaders but rather supporters who leave sufficient room for discretion so lower-level officials or local implementation organizations can construct a policy implementation process adaptable to the implementation environment.
In such thinking mode and from the aspect of policy implementation, the study tries to examine and evaluate police organizations' dangerous
driving control policies. A case study of the police organizations in Kaohsiung City was conducted. Based on a policy implementation theory constructed from three research approaches - top-down model of the first generation, bottom-up model of the second generation and integrated model of the third generation, the study made a comprehensive survey of the three research approaches and used it as the research method of the study. The main structure of the study is divided into five chapters: Chapter One -…

▼ Drunk
driving continues to be a national, state, and
local problem in spite of recent changes in laws governing
drinking and
driving.
Driving under the influence of
intoxicants (DDII) has been judged to be responsible for
approximately one-half of all traffic related deaths
nationally, killing 25,000 Americans and injuring 700,000
annually. Not all individuals who drink are problem
drivers, and not all individuals who drink and drive
continue to do so after their first DUII offense. Yet,
there appears to be a percentage of drinking drivers who
habitually drink and drive and continue to do so regardless
of previous citations, arrests, accidents, alcohol
treatment rehabilitation programs, or license revocation.
The purpose of this study was to identify biographical
variables, as well as descriptive factors of arrest
circumstances and consequences, which differentiate between
drinking drivers grouped by total number of DUII offenses. The sample consisted of 397 drivers receiving one or
more citation(s) for DUII from January 1, 1983 through
December 31, 1983 in Benton County, Oregon. A ten year
driving history was accessed using records kept by the
Department of Motor Vehicles to determine the total number
of drinking
driving offenses for each
subject.
Additionally, DUII arrests occuring January 1, 1984 through
July 24, 1985 were recorded. The percentage of drivers
with multiple DUII arrests was 44.0%.
Data were collected for each individual using arrest
reports,
driving records, and court records. A total of 25
biographic,
driving, criminal history, circumstantial, and
consequential characteristics constituted independent and
predictor variables. Significant differences were found
among drinking drivers grouped by total number of DUIIs
and by recidivist vs. nonrecidivist status.
Recidivist drinking drivers were not found to be a
homogeneous group. Significant differences were found
between drivers with multiple drinking and
driving
offenses. This study found that chronic repeat drinking
and
driving offenders (32 arrests) tended to be slightly
older than other groups of drinking drivers, were more
likely to be unemployed and have a past criminal record.
Additionally, they were more likely than nonrecidivists to
be arrested for drinking and
driving on a weekday during
afternoon and early evening hours, drive with a suspended or revoked drivers license, and refuse a blood alcohol
determination test when arrested. It was also found that
recidivist drinking drivers tended to have fewer nonmoving
and moving traffic violations than drivers with one or two
DUII arrests. The group of drinking drivers with the
highest percentage of accidents associated with their 1983
DUII arrest were nonrecidivists. It was concluded that
that significant differences exist among drinking drivers
when grouped by the number of DUII violations.

▼ This thesis presents a new approach for stochastic model predictive (optimal) control: model predictive path integral control, which is based on massive parallel sampling of control trajectories. We first show the theoretical foundations of model predictive path integral control, which are based on a combination of path integral control theory and an information theoretic interpretation of stochastic optimal control. We then apply the method to high speed autonomous
driving on a 1/5 scale vehicle and analyze the performance and robustness of the method. Extensive experimental results are used to identify and solve key problems relating to robustness of the approach, which leads to a robust stochastic model predictive control algorithm capable of consistently pushing the limits of performance on the 1/5 scale vehicle.

▼ The aim of this thesis is to investigate the mechanisms of skill acquisition and the impact of aging on these processes in the laboratory and during driving. This has a range of applications, including training older drivers to decrease their crash risk. Methods used include functional magnetic resonance imaging, eye tracking and driving simulation. Chapter 2 investigates the neural mechanisms that support the cognitive control of eye movements during visual sequence learning. Areas of the cerebellum that communicate with the prefrontal cortex showed activity changes that corresponded with performance increases as subjects became better at rehearsing information in working memory. Chapters 3 and 4 investigate the effects of ageing on visual skill learning. Using a novel spatial Stroop paradigm, Chapter 3 shows that in the face of conflicting information, performance decreases in older but not younger subjects. Chapter 4 uses an oculomotor adaptation of the Useful Field of Vision test, which examines the amount of information extracted from central and peripheral vision. Accuracy on a central visual task decreased as a concurrent peripheral visual task was conducted at higher radial eccentricities. Performance on the task conducted in central vision was significantly worse in older than younger subjects when the peripheral task was at the furthest distance. The effects of route familiarity on driving are explored in Chapter 5. Results show that driver behaviour can be performed earlier, and with less hesitation in familiar environments. Younger drivers benefitted from this more than older drivers. Hazard perception skill was facilitated by increased familiarity with an environment. This thesis reports the effects of practice on the cognitive control of eye movements during laboratory and real-world settings, and shows that they become increasingly skilled, probably supported by processes in the cerebellum. It also shows that the ability to acquire these skills reduces with age.

▼ Touchscreens are widely used in interface designs, with the benefits of ease of use and flexibility in interaction design. However, visual attention is essential to touchscreen interaction, which results in frequent reorientation of attention in multitask contexts and thus leads to task interferences. This visually-demanding nature of touchscreens can expose operators to safety risks in certain domains, such as in
driving. In this regard, earlier studies have attempted to address visual distraction potential related to in-vehicle touchscreens. Nevertheless, road traffic statistics show that in-vehicle touchscreens are still contributing to a considerable number of crashes each year.
This dissertation aims to investigate and design means to offload visual demands of touchscreen interaction in complex, data-rich environments, focusing on
driving as the application domain. The research tested the configurations of an in-vehicle touchscreen, concerning feedback modality and control size. Vertical locations of this secondary interface were also examined in terms of distraction effects. Preliminary design efforts evaluated the practicality of a symbolic encoding method using vibrotactile beats.
A novel interface design, Nonvisual Aids for Touchscreen Experience (NATE), primarily employs distributed tactile cues that are proximal to operators but physically separated from a touchscreen device. This method involves presenting vibratory cues to the back of operators, and each cue is spatially mapped to each touchscreen control. NATE allows operators to bind those multiple stimuli to perform touchscreen interaction via nonvisual channels. An evaluation study was conducted in a simulated environment, comparing measures in
driving performance, glance behavior, and perceived workload between an ordinary touchscreen and NATE-based touchscreen applications. The
driving scenarios were based on the Lane Change Test procedure established by the ISO standard.
The findings indicate that the application of NATE to in-vehicle touchscreen designs significantly reduced visual distraction and improved performance in vehicle operation. However, performance measures on a touchscreen task suggest limitations. This body of research provides inputs to the design community of in-vehicle touchscreens, focusing on offloading visual demands of drivers. Theoretical contributions include a deeper understanding of glance behavior, which can inform models of human behavior in multitask contexts.

▼ This research develops an optimization model for eco-
driving at signalized intersection. In urban areas, signalized intersections are the “hot spots” of air emissions and have significant negative environmental and health impacts. Eco-
driving is a strategy which aims to reduce exclusive fuel consumption and emissions by modifying or optimizing drivers’ behaviors. With the help of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication (V2I), eco-
driving could utilize the signal phase and the queue-discharging time information to optimize the speed trajectories for the vehicles approaching an intersection in order to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. A few research studies have been conducted on the development of algorithms that utilize traffic signal information to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
Hence, the goal of this research is to develop an optimization model to determine the optimal eco-
driving trajectory (the speed profile) at a signalized intersection, which aims to achieve the minimization of a linear combination of emissions and travel time. Then enumeration method, simplex optimization and genetic algorithm are investigated to determine a practicable and efficient method to solve the proposed optimization problem. As various scenarios of distance from the vehicle to the intersection, queue discharging time and weights of emission/travel time will lead to different optimal trajectories and different emissions and travel times. A sensitivity study is conducted to analyze and compare the performance of the optimal solution in various scenarios of different such parameters. In addition, a baseline study is conducted to investigate the benefits of eco-
driving when drivers only decelerate in advance but not apply the recommended speed trajectory. The results of case study show that genetic algorithm is a preferred method to solve the proposed optimization problem; Eco-
driving could achieve satisfied reduction in emissions without significantly increasing travel time and emissions is more sensitive to various scenarios than travel time; Eco-
driving still could achieve reduction in emissions as long as the drivers decelerate earlier even though the they would not apply the recommended speed trajectory under certain conditions.

▼ M.Ing.
The induction machine is being widely implemented in motor control systems. Frequently not all the parameters of a system, which consists of an induction machine, an inverter, a load and a controller, are known. As the response of an induction machine is very sensitive to changes in these parameters, it is important to be able to design a control system that is independent of any parameter changes. In the past years, many control techniques have been developed for speed control of machine drives. The use of intelligent controllers has also recently been proposed to improve the response of the induction machine drive. With a fuzzy controller, we will try to eliminate as much as possible the effects of parameter variations that influence the response of the drive system. Since the fuzzy controller design is independent of the dynamic drive system model, the performance of the fuzzy controller is insensitive to any parameter changes. The fuzzy controller replaces the proportional- and integral controller (PI-controller) to determine the slip in a slip controller. The system for which the fuzzy controller is being investigated for implementation, is a battery operated wheelchair using two three phase cage rotor induction machines. These small; low voltage machines show strong parameter variations, making conventional control difficult. The fuzzy logic controller was investigated and the response compared with that of the PI-controller. The results indicated that at high rotor speeds the response of the fuzzy control strategy was favourable, but at low speeds ineffective. By modifying the fuzzy control strategy the rotor speed response can be optimised over the total speed zone.

▼ This thesis provides
rich insights into the lived experiences of mobility by
investigating the embodied dimensions of transport
choices. In a context of climate change and the need for
adaptive transport behaviours this thesis goes beyond
conventional and longstanding Cartesian dualist thinking
that separates mind and body. Instead, this thesis
proposes a more holistic approach to understanding why
car driving remains the dominant form of daily transport.
Inspired by the work of post-structuralist feminist
scholars and the non-representational turn in geography
and cultural studies, this thesis takes a visceral
approach. This approach utilises feminist readings of
philosophers Deleuze and Guattari (1987) to conceptualize
everyday car driving practices as processual assemblages
where bodies, materials, objects, ideas, affects and
emotions come together in heterogeneous and dynamic
relations that can develop along particular trajectories.
The findings of the thesis illustrate that knowledge and
awareness of the contribution of vehicle emissions to
climate change were not enough to change car driving
practices. Car driving practices were entwined with
emergent subjectivities and social practices that helped
to create, reinforce or disrupt understandings of
different aspects of identity. This thesis makes a
contribution to the current mobilities literature by
building on and applying a range of innovative methods in
the light of the recent theoretical developments
highlighting the importance of affective and emotional
registers. It addresses the gap between the dominant,
quantitative, rationalist transport paradigm and the more
abstracted, masculinist approach of mobilities literature
by providing a grounded empirical account of everyday
transport behaviours and a feminist interpretation of
self, others and place. From a policy point of view, the
thesis contributes to sustainable transport strategies by
provoking thinking beyond current paradigmatic
boundaries. Through a visceral approach the thesis
highlights opportunities for encouraging a modal shift in
transport policy.

▼ Dementia refers to a
syndrome characterised by a progressive deterioration of
memory and at least one other cognitive domain which
interferes with daily function and independence.
Epidemiological data indicate the prevalence of dementia
to be 6.4% of those aged over 65. Recent estimates by the
World Health Organisation claim that 35.6 million people
have dementia. It is expected that this figure will
double every 20 years to 115.4 million by 2050. The issue
of driving is critically important for people as they age
prompting calls for the development of interventions to
maintain the mobility of older adults. Given the rising
number of drivers with dementia on our roads, the poor
uptake of public transport by older people and the
negative consequences of driving cessation, there is a
clear need for novel strategies to enhance both personal
independence and community safety. Most medical and
vehicle licensing authorities concur that individuals
with moderate or severe dementia cannot drive safely.
However, there remains a lack of consensus regarding the
impact of mild dementia on driving ability.
The principal aims of this thesis were
threefold. First, to determine the approach adopted by
doctors toward drivers with dementia. This required
investigation of: (i) the knowledge, attitudes and
behaviour of junior doctors; (ii) the provision of
driving advice in hospital discharge summaries; and (iii)
Australian reporting obligations and medico-legal
frameworks. Second, to create a user-friendly decision
aid for drivers with dementia. International decision aid
quality criteria were adopted to ensure that this
decision aid would lead to: (i) reduced decisional
conflict; (ii) improved knowledge levels; and (iii)
enhanced decisional satisfaction. Last, to make a
meaningful contribution to academic literature, public
policy and future research regarding driving and
dementia. This necessitated the provision of: (i) a
management approach for general practitioners; (ii) an
overview of existing dementia-related decision aids;
(iii) an analysis of the ethical issues faced by
physicians; and (iv) a review of the barriers commonly
encountered during qualitative dementia
research. This thesis by publication
consists of a series of interwoven studies and reviews
which address the topic of driving and dementia.
Qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods approaches
were adopted, as needed, during the construction of this
body of work. As with most research involving people with
dementia, prospective ethical approval was
secured. …

▼ The current study investigated the effect of alcohol on simulated
driving and cognitive performance across multiple blood alcohol levels (0.00, 0.02, 0.05 & 0.08%). The main objective was examine if the effect of alcohol was dose and task dependent and whether there was a mismatch in the development of acute tolerance across subjective and objective measures. Thirty participants (male & female) completed a simulated drive that comprised a rural highway which was divided into low and high traffic segments. In the
driving scenario, a range of measures including speed maintenance, sign detection and hazard reaction were collected. Participants also completed a computer administered continuous performance test, a subjective measure of intoxication and had their breath alcohol level recorded. The experiment included a pre-alcohol, intoxicated and two post alcohol recovery conditions in which the measures were repeated at the same time intervals. Results showed no significant impairments in accelerator or brake reaction time but there was a significant increase in the number of crashes which increased in a dose dependent manner. There were no significant impairments in the sign detection task but traffic density was found to impair
driving performance particularly in the heavy traffic segments. A significant Group*Density*Road interaction was also found, where the 0.05% group had a higher maximum speed on Road 4 than on Road 3 in the heavy traffic (70km/h) zone. There were no significant findings for the development of acute tolerance.

▼ Motor vehicle collisions are a leading cause of police officer on-duty deaths. Distracted
driving is a major contributing factor in motor vehicle collisions among the general public. Within policing, fatigue associated with shift work is a well-established and pervasive problem that affects officer performance, safety, and health. Although drowsy
driving among post-shift workers is a well-established risk factor, no data are available about officer injuries and deaths due to drowsy
driving. To address this gap in the literature, we assessed the impact of distraction, fatigue, and the interaction of distraction and fatigue on officers’
driving using laboratory experiments with high fidelity simulation. In addition, we assessed the ability of a well-validated psychomotor vigilance test to assess post-shift drowsy
driving risks. Experienced police patrol officers (n=80) from all four shifts of a medium-sized city's police department were tested using a within- and between-subjects design to assess the impact of distraction and fatigue on individual officers, as well as the impact of different work shifts, on
driving performance. Controlled laboratory experiments were conducted during which participants drove high-fidelity
driving training simulators on two separate occasions: immediately following five consecutive 10:40-hour patrol shifts (fatigued condition) and again 72 hours after completing the last shift in a work cycle (rested condition).Generalized linear mixed effects model analyses of
driving performance showed that officers’ distracted
driving performance had significantly greater lane deviation (f=88.58, df=1, 308, p<0.001)—a leading indicator of collisions. This analytical framework found officers working night shifts had significantly greater lane deviation during post-shift, non-operational
driving than those working day shifts (f=4.40, df=1, 150, p=0.038). The same method also showed that easy-to-measure psychomotor vigilance test (PVT) scores for reaction time predicted both lane deviation (f=31.48, df=1, 151, p<0.001) and collisions (f=14.10, df=1,151, p<0.001) during the simulated drives. We also found a significant impact of distraction (f=14.90, df=1, 305, p<0.001), working the graves (midnight) shift (f=4.89, df=1, 305, p=0.028), and distraction/shift interaction (f=4.81, df=1, 305, p=0.029) on the probability of a collision.This is the first experimental research to assess the impact of distraction, fatigue, and shiftwork on police patrol
driving and post-shift
driving.

▼ The research attempts to evaluate the maintaining of the chain of evidence
as a process of effective collection, handling and preservation of evidence.
The concept "chain of evidence" refers to the process of collecting, handling
and preservation of evidence until its presentation in court, as part of the
investigation process.
Evidence is anything that tends logically to prove or disprove a fact at issue
in a judicial case. Evidence essentially consists of oral evidence,
documentary evidence and real evidence. The value of evidence cannot be
underestimated as evidence can make or break a case. It is therefore
important that evidence is correctly and properly collected, handled and
preserved to establish a strong link between an individual and a specific act.

▼ The most important element is safety to the development and driving of the car. The system that examines the driver fatigue to improve safety is developed in the present study. The speed of the car is used as a means to examine tiredness. The advantage is not to restrain the driver and to be installed hardware easily. The system promotes the sage driving by 1 uantifying the driving skill, and feeding back an appropriate driving. Moreover, the application such as tracks to the driving management system can be expected by monitoring tiredness.

▼ This thesis reports three experiments investigating how age-related declines in visual motion processing affect older drivers’ ability to drive safely. In particular, these experiments assess the efficacy of: 1) A test of motion sensitivity, the Peripheral Motion Contrast Threshold (PMCT) test, which evaluates ones’ contrast threshold for detecting motion in the periphery, and 2) the 3D multiple-object tracking test (3D MOT), which evaluates the maximum stimulus speed at which one can maintain visual attention on several objects moving in three dimensions. Two versions of the PMCT test—the PMCT-10 and the shorter PMCT-2—were employed. Driving safety was measured via a high fidelity driving simulator, in addition to several self-report measures and archival data. Study 1 showed that PMCT-2 and PMCT-10 thresholds were associated with number of crashes in the simulator and other indices of unsafe driving. Study 2 examined whether the PMCT-2 could predict older driver performance during a different set of simulated driving scenarios, and whether it was associated retrospectively with real world crash rates. PMCT-2 results were significantly correlated with simulated crash risk. Moreover, Study 2 provided the first evidence that PMCT scores are associated with real-world crash, albeit in a small retrospective sample. Study 3 examined the relationship between results from both the PMCT-2 and 3D MOT tests and simulated driving. Multiple object tracking has previously been associated with older drivers' performance. Results showed a strong relationship in our sample between crash rates and 3D MOT results. However, we failed to replicate the results showing a relationship between PMCT and crash occurrence. This may have been due to high rates of subject attrition due to simulator sickness, which resulted in a small final sample. Overall, findings from the three studies demonstrate that results from PMCT and 3D MOT are associated with older drivers’ performance measures, such as crash rates, dangerous lane deviations, and speeding. These findings support visual motion processing measures as viable candidates for inclusion in a multi-domain assessment of older drivers’ fitness to drive.

▼ Driving is a cognitively complex task, yet the areas of the brain involved in driving are not well understood. This thesis investigates the neural correlates of driving using functional magnetic resonance imaging and driving simulations with custom built driving hardware (steering wheel and foot pedals). The feasibility of driving in fMRI is first investigated, and a methodology is described to minimize head motions. Next, the functional neuroanatomical correlates of driving tasks of varying complexity are explored. Simple tasks such as straight driving activate areas of the brain related to motion, spatial navigation and coordination. Complex tasks are found to recruit additional areas of the brain, including areas of higher cognitive function such as the prefrontal cortex. Developing a better understanding of the areas involved in different driving tasks is an important first step in understanding the neural basis of driving skill and safe driving.

▼ Over 10,000 driving under the influence (DUI) cases were arraigned in Connecticut courts in fiscal year 2014-2015 alone. Approximately one-half of these were repeat offenders who were sentenced to probation, jail time, or a combination of both. The current study seeks to establish a demographic profile for first time and repeat DUI offenders. A secondary data analysis was conducted on 1,302 offenders who discharged from the Connecticut Department of Correction (DOC) for a DUI conviction in 2004. Arrest data was tracked over a 10 year period (2004-2014) to determine the rate of DUI recidivism for this sample. Standard demographics, DOC classification scores, sentence length and type; release type, and offender type were analyzed to determine which variables were related to recidivism. This study found that (1) demographics were the same amongst the sample population and the subsample of recidivists, (2) offenders in this sample were classified with low mental health treatment needs, moderate to high substance abuse treatment needs, and a very low propensity to violence, yet these variables were not statistically significantly related to recidivism, (3) end of sentence offenders serving less than six months were more likely to recidivate, and (4) first time and second time DUI offenders were significantly more likely to recidivate at different rates (four years for first time offenders compared to five years for second time offenders). Although gender and marital status were found to be statistically significant, findings indicate that it is difficult to predict DUI recidivism using any of the other variables.

▼ Driving is a high-risk adventure which many enjoy on a daily basis. The driving task is highly complex, ever-changing, and one which requires continuous attention and rapid decision making. It is a task that is not without risk, where the cost to reach the desired destination can be too great – your life could be at stake. Driving is not without incidents. Rear-end collision is a common problem in the Swedish traffic environment, with over 100 police-reported individual incidents per year. The amount of rear-end collisions can be hypothetically reduced by introducing new technology in the driver’s vehicle, technology which attempts to improve the driver’s safety driving. This technology is called Advanced Driver Assistance Systems – ADAS. In this study two ADAS were evaluated in a driving simulator study: An Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) which operates on both hazardous and non-hazardous events, and a Collision Warning System (CWS) which operates solely on non-hazardous events. Both of these ADAS function to guard against risky driving and are based on the assumption that drivers will not act in such a manner that they would willingly reduce the effectiveness of the system. A within-subjects simulation study was conducted where participants drove under three conditions: 1) with an adaptive cruise controller, 2) a frontal rear-end collision warning system ADAS, and 3) unaided, in order to investigate differences between the three driving conditions. Particular focus was on whether the two ADAS improved driving safety. The study results indicate that driving enhanced by the two ADAS made the participating drivers drive less safely.

▼ Motorists are slowly becoming aware that they are legally and morally responsible for ensuring that they are fully rested and not at risk from sleepiness when driving, while vehicle manufacturers continue to attempt to find fail-safe warning systems. What further practical and theoretical advice can we give to drivers in order to reduce sleepiness-related accidents? Are technological countermeasures a viable alternative? Can we further predict the types of people who are most at risk by examining individual differences? This thesis outlines a series of experimental studies to investigate possible answers to these questions, and discusses the philosophy behind them.
