Abstract

Bus drivers feel more afraid at work than other drivers. This is the main conclusion from a survey among drivers in taxi, lorry, metro and bus. In the study we looked at risk for both accidents and unpleasant incidents such as violence and threats. There is a strong relationship between what the drivers have experienced and their degree of risk perception. Therefore the most experienced drivers are the most scared. In the study, risk perception was also compared between Norwegian and French drivers. The French drivers were far more afraid than the Norwegian drivers.
