It is currently unknown how automated vehicle platoons will be perceived by other road
users in their vicinity. This study explores how drivers of manually operated passenger cars …

Platoons of connected and automated Vehicles (CAVs) comprising both passenger cars and
trucks are expected to appear on highways in the coming years. Though prior studies …

Platooning refers to a group of vehicles that—enabled by wireless vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V)
communication and vehicle automation—drives with short inter-vehicular distances. Before …

Platooning technology aims at achieving fuel savings by reducing the distance between two
or more electronically coupled vehicles. This technology has recently been tested on public …

Objective The aim of the study was to investigate (1) how different gap sizes are perceived
by professional truck drivers under real traffic conditions and (2) whether semi-automated …

An increasing amount of vehicles are equipped with driver assistance systems; many of the
vehicles currently on the market can be optionally equipped with adaptive cruise control and …

A baseline case was created for the following behavior of heavy-truck drivers with the use of
naturalistic driving data to support the development of automated platooning. A truck platoon …

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) operating in shared urban environments, often referred to as
“pods”, will constantly have to interact with pedestrians. As a result, an effective strategy will …

Communication among road users smooths interactions, improves efficiency, and mitigates
risk. Eye contact and waving may be the most salient of this communication, but more often …

The introduction of automated vehicles (AVs) leads to mixed traffic where the AV should
safely and efficiently integrate into established interactions. Since the driving behavior and …
