Automated Vehicle (AV) technology has the potential to significantly improve driver safety. Unfortunately, drivers could be reluctant to ride with AVs due to their lack of trust and acceptance of AVs’ driving styles. The present study investigated the effects of the designed driving style of AV (aggressive/defensive) and driver’s driving style (aggressive/defensive) on driver's trust, acceptance, and take-over behavior in a fully AV.

General estimating equations were conducted to analyze the relationships between driver’s trust, acceptance …
