Most of the traffic accidents are caused by human related factors. One of the most important human related factor in terms of traffic accident risk is aggressive driving behavior. Although driver aggressiveness is related with psychological reasons, it can be detected by observation of driving behavior using different sensing devices. This work presents a driver aggressiveness detection method exploiting the visual data obtained by on vehicle camera. The proposed method uses this visual data in order to extract features such as lane departure rate and possible collision time by detection of road lines and vehicles on the road. These features are used to train a classifier which decides on whether an aggressive behavior is performed in related driving session. According to conducted tests the proposed method is observed to achieve 90% correct detection rate of aggressive driving behavior.

A Multimodal Approach for Aggressive Driving Detection
Kumtepe, Omurcan; Yuncu, Enes; Akar, Gözde (2016-05-19)
Aggressive driving behavior is among the important causes of traffic accidents. Hence, detection of driver aggressiveness has an importance in terms of decreasing the number of traffic accidents. Collected driving data while the vehicle is in traffic can be used to make inferences about the aggressiveness of the driver. In this study, a multimodal method is proposed in order to detect driver aggressiveness. The proposed method is based on utilizing the visual data taken from the on vehicle camera and sensor...
Driver Aggressiveness Detection Using Visual Information from Forward Camera
Kumtepe, Omurcan; Akar, Gözde; Yuncu, Enes (2015-08-28)
Among the human related factors, aggressive driving behavior is one of the major causes of traffic accidents [17]. On the other hand, detection and characterization of driver aggressiveness is a challenging task since there exist different psychological causes behind it. However information about the driver behavior could be extracted from the data that is collected via different sensing devices. This paper presents a method to detect driver aggressiveness using only visual information provided by forward c...
THE MEDIATING ROLE OF DRIVING-RELATED COGNITIONS AND ANXIETY IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DRIVING SKILLS AND DRIVING BEHAVIORS
Azık Özkan, Derya; Öz, Bahar; Department of Psychology (2022-8-12)
Driving skills and driving behaviors, as being the human factors in driving, are the most studied and most influential variables of efforts to sustain a safe traffic environment. Although these factors were investigated in the literature and their relationships with different variables and each other are examined in various studies with various samples; anxiety-related factors have always been evaluated only within limited (avoidant) or clinical groups. However, anxiety, like anger, is a negative emotional ...

The effect of road safety advertisements on speeding behavior over time: A simulator study
Özkan, Özgün; Özkan, Türker; Department of Psychology (2022-3)
Countermeasures to prevent death and injury in traffic are important for traffic safety. Human error is a critical component associated with road traffic accidents. Therefore, various organizations and decision-makers are trying to prevent risky behaviors via different methods. One of the most used methods of raising awareness and creating behavioral change is traffic safety campaign videos. The focus of the present study is speeding, which is one of the most dangerous violations on the road. The study aime...
