The driver's response to decreasing vehicle separations during transitions into the automated lane
This experiment is one in a series exploring human factors issues related to the Automated Highway System (AHS). The comfort level of the driver of the lead vehicle of a string of automated vehicles was determined (a) under normal AHS operating conditions, and (b) while a second vehicle was joining the string as the new lead vehicle. The experiment was conducted in the Iowa Driving Simulator. A generic AHS configuration was used--the left lane was reserved for automated vehicles, the center and right lanes contained unautomated vehicles, the center lane was not a dedicated transition lane, there were no barriers between the automated and unautomated lanes. Sixty drivers participated in the experiment--half male, half female; half between the ages of 25 and 34 years, half 65 or older.
