TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - Implementation of a driving diary intervention to reduce aberrant driving behaviours JO - Proceedings of the ... international driving symposium on human factors in driver assessment, training and vehicle design A1 - Rowland, Bevan A1 - Davey, Jeremy D. A1 - Freeman, James A1 - Wishart, Darren SP - 447 EP - 453 VL - 5 IS - N2 - Crash data involving taxis indicates that such drivers are over represented in crashes and are one to two times more likely to be involved in a fatality crash. This study reports on the pre intervention survey to provide a baseline measure of the self-reported attitudes and corresponding driving behaviours of a sample of taxi drivers. Results indicate that some taxi drivers willingly admit to engaging in unsafe driving practices. In addition, preliminary results of a post intervention survey revealed that taxi drivers’ safety perceptions, attitude and behaviours improved after completing a Driving Diary intervention.
