TAMING THE SILICON STEED : PERCEPTIONS OF RISK

John C. Keller, Paul P. Jovanis

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

This paper draws from contemporary research in the psychological literature to argue that transportation engineers and decision makers should consider the issue of perceived risk when developing Intelligent Vehicle-Highway Systems (IVHS). These perceptions will influence public acceptance of IVHS technologies and the consequent product market. Current research could be affected in at least two areas: the design standards of IVHS systems and IVHS benefit estimation.
