Abstract
We describe the development of a set of items intended to measure a broad range of traffic perception and hazard avoidance skills for use in diagnosis of skill level in driver training and testing. The item set involves simulated dynamic traffic scenarios and contains three different task types. Type 1 relates to basic abilities of traffic observation, type 2 additionally requires the anticipation and identification of potential hazards, and type 3 further requires a decision (go/no-go) to act in order to prevent a potential hazard. We introduce the design of a training study with learner drivers in which the item set is currently being trialed. Finally, we give information about the status of assessment, intermediate results and further plans to evaluate the item set towards the development of a hazard perception test for the German system of novice driver preparation.
