TRB’s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board 1899 presents research into the use of intelligent transportation system data for determining driver deceleration and acceleration behavior, motorist response to arterial variable message signs, the vehicle height effects on drivers’ speed perceptions, and the effects of passenger and cellular phone conversations on driver distraction. The organizational competence of the U.K. rail industry in strategic safety management and the current practice and future directions of visualization in transportation also are examined. The papers contained in this volume were among those presented at the 83rd Annual Meeting of the Transportation Research Board in January 2004.
