Abstract

According to the Indonesian Department of Transportation, 86% of traffic accidents are attributed to human factors. Additionally, road conditions are identified as a contributing factor to road accidents. Therefore, this study aimed to explore road conditions and their impact on the driving behaviour of car drivers. Data for this exploration were collected by distributing questionnaires to 200 respondents, utilizing a Likert scale for answer options. The technique used was random sampling, utilizing descriptive statistical analysis and a Confirmatory Factor Analysis model. Consequently, the result showed that each latent variable construct examined by car drivers had a value exceeding 80%. The most prominent latent variable was the "Condition of Road Surface Facilities," accounting for 88.1% and featuring eight indicators. The indicator "Disturbed when passing through a narrow road," part of the latent variable "Condition of Road Equipment Facilities," had the highest standardized value at 1.223. Finally, this study suggested that the government should prioritize attention to road infrastructure conditions to enhance driver comfort and mitigate the risk of traffic accidents.
