Field test dataset on human driven vehicles' behaviour in mixed traffic with automated vehicles

This research is based on data gathered in 2020 in the Netherlands.<br>A controlled field test was conducted in which human drivers interacted with both human-driven vehicles (HDVs) and automated vehicles (AVs). Participants were asked to drive in their own vehicle (because of COVID-19 restrictions). During the field test, the participants interacted with an instrumented test vehicle that could be set up to appear as an AV. The instrumented test vehicle collected data on the driving behavior of the participant during their interactions. The field test was approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee of the Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands.<br>The field test was conducted on a 3 km long straight road section in Noordzeeweg near the town of Rozenburg in the Netherlands. The test route had one 3.5-m wide lane per direction separated by dashed lane markings (i.e., overtaking was allowed). The traffic intensity of the test location was very low (around 30 vehicles per hour), and the speed limit of the road section is 60 km/h. A depiction of the route is attached in this dataset information.<br>18 participants took part in the field test.14 participants were between 35 and 60 years old, and 4 participants were younger than 35 years old. Behaviors of gap acceptance, overtaking, and car-following were studied, while the scenarios varied with the appearance of the test vehicle, either as an HDV or AV.<br>More details about the experiment set-up itself can be found in our paper published: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trf.2022.02.002<br><br><strong>Attached files:</strong>Processed datasetReadMe file<br><strong>File formats:</strong>Data (created and used in matlab) /.sav

本研究基于2020年在荷兰采集的试验数据。<br>本次研究开展了一项受控现场试验，人类受试驾驶员可分别与人类驾驶车辆（human-driven vehicles, HDVs）及自动车辆（automated vehicles, AVs）进行交互。受新冠疫情防控限制，参与者需驾驶自有车辆参与试验。试验期间，参与者会与一台可设置为自动车辆外观的仪表化测试车辆互动，该车辆会采集参与者交互过程中的驾驶行为数据。本次现场试验已通过荷兰代尔夫特理工大学人类研究伦理委员会的伦理审查。<br>本次试验在荷兰罗森堡镇附近的Noordzeeweg路段开展，该路段为一条长3千米的平直道路。试验路线双向各设有一条宽3.5米的车道，以虚线车道标线分隔（允许超车）。试验区域的交通强度极低（约每小时30辆车），该路段限速60千米/小时。本数据集信息中附有试验路线的示意图。<br>本次试验共有18名参与者，其中14名年龄介于35至60岁之间，剩余4名年龄不足35岁。研究聚焦于间隙接受、超车及跟车等驾驶行为，试验场景随测试车辆的外观变化而调整——测试车辆可伪装为人类驾驶车辆或自动车辆。<br>有关试验设置的更多细节可参阅我们已发表的学术论文：https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trf.2022.02.002<br><br><strong>附加文件：</strong>处理后数据集、说明文档<br><strong>文件格式：</strong>数据文件（由Matlab创建并使用，格式为.sav）
