| Abstract | Based upon the results of the simulator data analysis, additional future research can be identified to validate the driving simulator in terms of similarities with Ohio work zones. For instance, the speeds observed in the simulator were greater for divided roadways than undivided roadways. Absolute, relative and interactive validity could be analyzed to determine what differences, if any, exist between the simulator and the data collected in Ohio. Since the naturalistic study conducted by Virginia Tech did not identify or document the work zone configurations, the simulator validity portion of this project could not be completed. However, additional data collection in Ohio could validate the simulator using other data and methods. |
