Controlling Motor Vehicle Driver Behavior at Roadside Interview Sites
In the driver intercept type of origin-destination study, effective control of driver behavior is essential to avoid injury or death to travelers
and field interviewers. However, the typical flagger lacks knowledge of the factors
that control human behavior. Consequently, their efforts to control driver behavior
are based on observation of other ineffective flaggers and personal trial and error.
This article describes a four-step process to control driver behavior. Field research
has consistently shown this process is effective. |
