Abstract It is often difficult for highway and traffic engineers to consider complex driver behavior in their designs, but failing to do so can cost lives and, if roadways must be rebuilt, millions of dollars. The aim of "Making Driving Simulators More Useful for Behavioral Research," an Exploratory Advanced Research (EAR) Program project, is to make driving simulators a more reliable tool for highway engineers. The 32-month study, launched by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in 2009, is being conducted by the University of Iowa.
