“…Several previous studies in the past have examined pedestrian crossing behaviors, crossing speed [7][8][9][10], gap acceptance [6,11,12], and trip route choice [13][14][15]. However, few of them have considered pedestrian jaywalking events.…”

“…Based on the gap acceptance theory researchers have developed mathematical models to represent the gap acceptance behavior of pedestrian with the help of pedestrian demographic characteristics such as gender and age [5], types of vehicle and waiting time [6], effect of rolling gap [7], effect of parked vehicles [8], non-compliant road crossing behavior at midblock locations [9], [10] and non-compliant road crossing behavior at signalized intersection [11].…”

Abstract:Pedestrians are most vulnerable of all road users. This research aims to investigate and model pedestrian road crossing behaviour at crossing facilities. In particular, they have two aspects of pedestrians crossing behaviour are examined, namely the size of traffic gaps acceptance by pedestrians and the decision of pedestrians either to cross the road or not. A fields survey was carried out at six crossing facilities which from a zebra crossing at midblock. In this survey, the data were recorded in real traffic condition using video recorder. Determine the associations between characteristics of pedestrians, crossing facilities and vehicular traffic through on-site observations of pedestrian behaviour. This data will analysis using statistical analysis which is multiple regression and binary logit regression method. It is hope that through this research, the model of pedestrian gap acceptance and pedestrian crossing decision can be reached and what are the indicators that pedestrians look for when accepting gaps to cross the road.

“…Generally, road is divided into several lanes with white lines. Wang et al [17] indicated that cars preferred to move in one lane at most time for safety. Pedestrians predict that the approaching cars move in the middle of the lane.…”

Limited pedestrian microcosmic simulation models focus on the interactions between pedestrians and vehicles at unmarked roadways. Pedestrians tend to head to the destinations directly through the shortest path. So, pedestrians have inclined trajectories pointing destinations. Few simulation models have been established to describe the mechanisms underlying the inclined trajectories when pedestrians cross unmarked roadways. To overcome these shortcomings, achieve solutions for optimal design features before implementation, and help to make the design more rational, the paper establishes a modified social force model for interactions between pedestrians and vehicles at unmarked roadways. To achieve this goal, stop/go decision-making model based on gap acceptance theory and conflict avoidance models were developed to make social force model more appropriate in simulating pedestrian crossing behaviors at unmarked roadways. The extended model enables the understanding and judgment ability of pedestrians about the traffic environment and guides pedestrians to take the best behavior to avoid conflict and keep themselves safe. The comparison results of observed pedestrians' trajectories and simulated pedestrians' trajectories at one unmarked roadway indicate that the proposed model can be used to simulate pedestrian crossing behaviors at unmarked roadways effectively. The proposed model can be used to explore pedestrians' trajectories variation at unmarked roadways and improve pedestrian safety facilities.
