Contributing factors and risky scenario of cyclists’ smart phone using behavior

Abstract

Abstract:

A comprehensive research was carried out on the causes and scenarios of cyclists’ use of mobile phones in campus based on ergonomics. Face-to-face interviews and field video recordings were employed to summarize the proportion of cyclists using mobile phones. Questionnaire survey method was used to figure out the frequencies and reasons of cyclists using mobile phones, as well as their understanding of the impact of using mobile phones in cycling. By extracting the dataset, a Bayes binomial complementary pair probit model was proposed to analyze the factors of using mobile phone in cycling, such as riding environment, riding time, weather and subjective factors (e.g. gender, habits and mood of cyclists). The results show that the probability of using mobile phone in campus is 3.2%, and most of the riding scenes occur on road sections and working days. The findings provide the basis and direction for the guidance of riding civilization norms and the setting of relevant safety regulations.

Key words: road traffic safety, cyclists’ safety, risk scenario determination, Bayes clog-log probit mode
