Samenvatting

The objective of this study is to understand driver needs from a preventive and protective perspective focusing on cognitive pre-crash factors influencing the older driver in intersection collisions. The study combines information from a statistical dataset and 33 in-depth cases. The statistical data confirmed results from prior studies indicating that the drivers aged over 55 are relatively more involved in collisions at intersections having an overall higher injury risk compared to drivers aged 25-35. The in-depth data indicated that missed observations were one major cause in the development of the collision scenarios studied. The major possible causes together with the contributing causes are analysed and discussed. For the covering abstract see ITRD E144229.
