Download or read book Driver Behaviour and Training written by Dr Lisa Dorn and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-10-28 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on driver behaviour has clearly demonstrated that the goals and motivations a driver brings to the driving task are important determinants for driver behaviour. The objective of the book, and of the conference on which it is based, is to describe and discuss recent advances in the study of driving behaviour and driver training. It bridges the gap between practitioners in road safety, and theoreticians investigating driving behaviour, from a number of different perspectives and related disciplines. The book is timely in its aim of defining new approaches to driver training methodology based on decades of empirical research on driver behaviour. The contributing road safety researchers and professionals consider the kinds of methods that are effective in teaching drivers the higher-level skills needed to be a safe competent driver. The readership includes road safety researchers from a variety of different academic backgrounds, senior practitioners in the field from regulatory authorities and professional driver training organisations such as the police service, and private and public sector personnel who are concerned with improving road safety.

Download or read book Arriving Alive written by Sandy Long and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-04-10 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book on how to avoid becoming a victim of crime on the highways, how to share the road with semi trucks and general driving tips. Excerpts from Arriving Alive: "Stopping for another broken down traveler is human nature, but it is very unsafe to do. There is a big scam that has been around for years it goes like this: a car is sitting on the shoulder with the hood up. A woman is standing by the car looking desperate. You stop to assist. A man jumps out from the bushes or from under the car and robs you. In recent times, this scam has been reported having 2 women do the robbing instead of a woman and a man. It is better to dial 911 and report a disabled vehicle than to stop. This year, a new scam has started being reported. You stop at a rest area; as you leave another car waves and honks at you indicating you may have a flat or whatever. When you stop on the shoulder, they pull in behind you and either rob you or steal your car." "Injuries from traffic crashes provide high numbers. Passenger cars and light trucks; 2007: 2,491,000, 2006: 2,575,000 (yes, those numbers are millions), against the amount of people injured in traffic crashes involving large trucks: 23,000 for both 2007 and 2006 (this does not differentiate whether it was truck drivers injured or other type vehicle occupants). Motorcycles causing injury again come in with high numbers; 2007: 103,000 against 88,000 in 2006." Safety starts in the driver's seat. Buy Arriving Alive today and learn how to be safe both personally and while driving on the highways and byways of America!
