Project R-9239

Title

Evaluation embellishing speed cameras (Research)

Abstract

The goal of this evaluation study is to compare the driving and viewing behavior of the road users toward stickered speed cameras in a simulated road environment with the driving and viewing behavior toward to non-stickered cameras. The following research questions are addressed: 1. Will the stickered cameras lead to a less abrupt reaction at the camera, as shown in the simulated driving parameters (eg speed / acceleration, braking behavior, lateral position)? 2. Will the stickered cameras better attract the attention, as shown in the viewing parameters (number of fixations, average fixation time at a time, total viewing time to the speed camera)? 3. Can the stickered cameras have a positive effect on road safety?
