The COMMOTIONS Urban Interactions Driving Simulator Study Dataset

Accurate modelling of road user interaction has received lot of attention in recent years due to the advent of increasingly automated vehicles. To support such modelling, there is a need to complement naturalistic datasets of road user interaction with targeted, controlled study data. This project describes a dataset collected in a simulator study conducted in the project COMMOTIONS, addressing urban driving interactions, in a state of the art moving base driving simulator. The study focused on two types of near-crash situations that can arise in urban driving interactions, and also collected data on human driver gap acceptance across a range of controlled gap sequences.
