Abstract
State driver stress was measured in both low and high traffic congestion using cellular telephones. The contributions of time urgency, trait driver stress, and hassles were also examined. Drivers showed substantially more state driver stress under high than low congestion. Time urgency made a significant positive contribution to state driver stress at both congestion levels. Trait driver stress also contributed positively under low congestion. There was a significant hassles X trait stress interaction under high congestion. Hassles exposure moderately increased state driver stress for high trait stress drivers, but reduced state driver stress for medium and low trait stress drivers. These findings indicate that state driver stress is influenced by a combination of situational and personal factors, including factors external to the driving context.
