User evaluation of Cooperative ITS: a study of ten use-cases on a dynamic simulator

The development of cooperative Intelligent Transportation systems (C-ITSs) has increased in speed since the launch, in 2010, of several nationwide experimentations. In this paper, the authors present the results of a user study carried out within Renault, using a dynamic simulator. Nine use cases were presented to 36 naïve drivers in order to measure their attractiveness to users and their impact on driving activity. Driver behaviors were recorded and followed by in-depth interviews. The road safety use cases were met very positively, provided that the information complemented normal perception. In contrast, the manner in which drivers considered the use cases related to road signs was much more variable. Some users viewed them as very useful, since they thought that driving safety begins with traffic-related information. Other users barely tolerated them, and even found them to be annoying when they were already able to access this information via other devices. These results remain to be tested on an open road and to examine depending on which Human-Computer Interface is used.
