Feasibility of Using In-Vehicle Video Data to Explore How to Modify Driver Behavior That Causes Nonrecurring Congestion

This research report—a product of the Reliability focus area of the second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2)—presents findings on the feasibility of using existing in-vehicle data sets, collected in naturalistic driving settings, to make inferences about the relationship between observed driver behavior and nonrecurring congestion. General guidance is provided on the protocols and procedures for conducting video data reduction analysis. In addition, the report includes technical guidance on the features, technologies, and complementary data sets that researchers should consider when designing future instrumented in-vehicle data collection studies. Finally, a new modeling approach is advanced for travel time reliability performance measurement across a variety of traffic congestion conditions.
