Steering or braking avoidance response in SHRP2 rear-end crashes and near-crashes: A decision tree approach

CONCLUSIONS: In this paper we analyzed driving context, drivers' behavior, event criticality, and drivers' response in a unified structure to predict their avoidance response. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such effort where large-scale naturalistic data (crashes and near crashes) was analyzed for prediction of drivers' maneuver and determined key behavioral and contextual factors that contribute to this avoidance maneuver.PMID:33691227 | DOI:10.1016/j.aap.2021.106055
