Abstract

This paper describes a means of analyzing a driver's performance with driving data taken from test tracks and driving simulators for vehicles encountering rear-end driving conflicts. Measures of time-to-collision and estimated closest approach appear to allow better comparison between driving conflicts and a driver's responses to conflicts under different conditions. Similar methods may be applied to field operational test data for evaluation of driver characteristics and safety measures. For the covering abstract see ITRD E825082.
