Abstract

Abstract: The trademark of motor vehicle use and driving attitude profiles explores new safety upgrades and energy redemption because of the role of driving attitude profiles and driving domains on road mishaps and traffic intensities. Thus, the goal of this research was to identify driving attitude profiles for multiple driving domains (on the basis of speed limits and winter conditions) from real‐world driving information and to investigate how these driving environments have an impact on driving attitude profiles. The study for this research was located in Bhubaneswar, India, where driving information from 64 motorists was collected with Fog Monitor (FM‐120) for at least 12 months. The outcomes indicate that both speed limits and winter states influence driving attitude profiles significantly. Specifically, for winter states, the outcomes provide authentication that motorists drive more quietly (normal speed is 21% lower for zero visibility (visibility < 100 m) than under haze conditions (visibility: 2–5 km), while positive and negative accelerations decrease by 7% and 9%, respectively), when deliberating the effect of speed limit more local streets (limits II, III, and IV streets) are the ones that present more reckless driving profiles in terms of acceleration (30%–40% increase from limit I to limit IV streets). The contribution of this study regards the quantification of the impacts of driving domains on driving attitude profiles, providing evidence that winter conditions significantly affect driving attitude profiles, leading motorists to adjust their driving attitude profiles to the driving domains. However, regarding the speed limit, the differences found in driving attitude profiles seem to be more a consequence of the infrastructure characteristics than an adjustment of driving attitude profiles.
