Measured vehicle control and maneuver choices at the wheel: steering, speed, headway, lane use, braking, signaling, pedal use.

What's here. Work that measures the driving task itself: steering_pattern, lane_positioning, speed_choice, following_distance, lane_changing, braking_response, signaling_behavior, pedal_misapplication, and eco_driving. behavioral_adaptation_risk_compensation sits here as the general case of control behavior shifting when the vehicle, the road, or a countermeasure changes.

What isn't here.

  • aggressive driving, road rage, and driving style as a disposition — Driver Psychology, Style & Traits. Speeding and short headways appear here only as measured behavior (speed_choice, following_distance). The trait and state framing, including aggressive_driving and stress_driving, is in Driver Psychology, Style & Traits.
  • how drivers behave with automation or ADAS engaged — Vehicle Automation & ADAS. behavioral_adaptation_risk_compensation here is the general phenomenon. Control behavior tied to a specific automated or assistance system belongs to Vehicle Automation & ADAS.
  • programs that teach or reward efficient driving — Training, Education & Intervention. eco_driving here is the measured driving behavior. Coaching, feedback, and gamification_driving used to change it are in Training, Education & Intervention.
