Human factors in modern traffic systems

Article Abstract:

The role of human factors in the development of transportation technologies is analyzed. Current efforts to develop transportation systems fail to consider the needs of end-users by being technology-centered rather than user-centered. It is argued that end users must be considered to meet future transportation goals while the design efforts should focus on macro-level effects and human interactions with other elements of the traffic system.
