Abstract

Since 2011, the world is living a Decade of Action for Road Safety. The goal is to reduce the number of deaths and injuries by half which are occurring due to road traffic accidents. Driving simulators can help in road safety studies without offering any risk to researchers and volunteers. Current article describes a medium sized and cost efficient driving simulator, mainly used by automotive industries. Such simulators have been used in several other applications. The examples are studies related to: i) driver’s behavior, ii) geometric track designs and iii) vertical or horizontal signage. Driving simulator has characteristics and performance similar to a compact vehicle. Software used to compile input data works in real time. At the end, two case studies using the driving simulator are presented. The first study is an assessment of the driver’s perception regarding the signage along a stretch of a Brazilian highway. The second one evaluates the change in the cognitive capacity of the driver when he has a secondary task, to be performed simultaneously to the driving task.
