Samenvatting

Incidents descriptive of good and of bed driver behavior were collected from 1,057 professionals representing 10 different specialities concerned with traffic safety. In all, 2,111 incidents were collected, from which 3,809 critical driver behaviors were abstracted and classified inductively.
