- Abstract
- This paper evaluates experimental variables for virtual road safety audits (VRSAs) through practical experiments to promote sustainable road safety. VRSAs perform road safety audits using driving simulators (DSs), and all objects in the road environment cannot be experimental variables because of realistic constraints. Therefore, the study evaluates the likelihood of recommendation of VRSA experimental variables by comparing DSs experiments and field reviews to secure sustainable road safety conditions. The net promoter score results evaluated "Tunnel", "Bridge", "Underpass", "Footbridge", "Traffic island", "Sign", "Lane", "Road marking", "Traffic light", "Median barrier", "Road furniture", and "Traffic condition" as recommended variables. On the contrary, the "Road pavement", "Drainage", "Lighting", "Vehicle", "Pedestrian", "Bicycle", "Accident", and "Hazard event" variables were not recommended. The study can be used for decision making in VRSA scenario development as an initial effort to evaluate its experimental variables.
