| Abstract | Literature on decision-making and social control was reviewed to identify key principles of human behavior that have potential for reducing the incidence of speed-too-fast and other conscious and intentional unsafe driving actions (UDAs). The review was a part of a larger study to define UDAs in operational terms and to identify promising countermeasures for the UDAs. Other results of the study are reported in Volume I: Description and Analysis of Promising Countermeasures, and Volume II: A Definitional Study of Speeding, Following Too Closely, and Driving Left of Center. The literature provides much support for the countermeasure strategies that focus on specific target groups with specific decision problems. Other strategies are also discussed, for example, using incentives and punishments, and implementing attitude-change techniques. Ways of applying these strategies at the secondary and tertiary levels of social control are discussed. /Abstract from summary report page/ |
