Driver behavior analysis on rural 2-lane, 2-way highways using SHRP 2 NDS data.

CONCLUSIONS: Young drivers (16-19 years old) were more likely to have driving behavior fault compared to other age groups. The presence of an intersection may also slightly increase the probability of driver behavior fault. The curve on the road can increase the risk of driver behavior fault. Drivers were more likely to have driver behavior fault when no hands were on the wheel. Sites with curves near intersections are locations where drivers are more likely to have behavior fault.
