| Abstract: | In order to get a better insight into the safety effects of alternative road designs, the subjective safety experiment has been conducted. The experiment has been designed to test the effect of geometric design characteristics and road environment on the subjective safety of rural road curves. The method used here allows to investigate the effect of a real driving environment on safety in a complex way. The results have shown the importance of the composed effect of curve geometry and curve environment on the subjective safety of rural curves. |
