DISSOCIATION AND DRIVER BEHAVIOUR

THE CONCEPT OF "DISSOCIATION" IS DISCUSSED WITH REFERENCE TO THE CLASSIFICATION OF DRIVERS AND AS A CONTRIBUTORY OR EVEN CAUSAL FACTOR IN TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS. EXAMPLES OF ACTUAL DRIVING BEHAVIOR ARE GIVEN WHERE DRIVERS SHOWING DISSOCIATIVE PATTERNS OF BEHAVIOR HAVE CARRIED OUT UNNECESSARY MANEUVERS, TAKEN RISKS AND HAD NEAR-ACCIDENTS. POSSIBLE FUTURE LINES OF RESEARCH IN THIS AREA ARE INDICATED. /AUTHOR/
