Abstract

Connected and autonomous vehicle technology is a prominent topic in today's discussions and holds great significance for the near future. While there is generally a positive outlook on autonomous vehicles across various levels, it is evident that users have diverse predictions and expectations. This chapter delves into the perspectives and expectations of users regarding autonomous vehicles, particularly in relation to traffic management and safety. A web-based survey was conducted, posing a total of 22 questions to users, encompassing their evaluations of autonomous vehicle technology, traffic safety, traffic management, and other related factors. These questions explored user concerns regarding different vehicle types and the anticipated benefits of autonomous vehicles. The survey study gathered insights from 508 participants. The findings revealed that while some users believe autonomous vehicles can enhance traffic management, they still have concerns about traffic safety. © 2023, IGI Global. All rights reserved.
