TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Experimental evidence for the field of safe travel JO - Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomic Society annual meeting A1 - Smith, Kersha A1 - Källhammer, Jan-Erik SP - 2246 EP - 2250 VL - 56 IS - 1 N2 - Regression analysis of driver ratings of alerts issued by an in-vehicle active safety system during a field operational test identified contextual factors that influence driver acceptance of system alerts. A nominal characterization of pedestrian location and two quantitative measures of pedestrian motion predict more than 60% of the variability in driver ratings and do not interact. This finding is empirical support for the classic notion of the field of safe travel (Gibson & Crooks, 1938).
