Abstract

A questionnaire that assesses hazard perception in automobile drivers was developed. Its items consist of 60 one or two-sentence description of commonly encountered driving situations each of which a respondent rates for danger of an accident on a 7-point rating scale. Results showed that women rated on the situation as more hazardous than the men did, and that the younger group rated them as being more hazardous than the older group did. Some significant correlations between ratings and numbers of self-reported accidents and traffic violations were found.
