Car cost and driver behavior

2025-06-11 17:43:19.202813+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Hmmm.. this seems like the sort of thing I'd have linked, but I don't see it. From 2020: Journal of Transport & Health: Estimated car cost as a predictor of driver yielding behaviors for pedestrians

Results Of 461 cars, 27.98% yielded to pedestrians. Cars yielded more frequently for females (31.33%) and whites (31.17%) compared to males (24.06%) and non-whites (24.78%). Cost of car was a significant predictor of driver yielding (OR = 0.97; p = 0.0307); odds of yielding decreased 3% per $1000 increase.

Via.
