Are Drivers Ready for the Winter? A Driver Behavior Analysis

Mahmut Esad Ergin ^[7]

Abstract: It can be difficult to adjust rapidly to winter circumstances, especially in nations with short winters and several seasons throughout the year. In the winter, especially in urban areas, traffic becomes one of the most significant challenges in everyday life, and even fundamental services such as schooling might be halted due to the inclement weather. The behavior of drivers in inclement weather is investigated in this study.The goal is to establish if drivers are prepared for winter circumstances, to review survey data, to disclose how much the driver's conduct contributes to the discomforts encountered, and to make recommendations for what measures should be done and what course to pursue. According to the findings of the survey, the majority of drivers who have been engaged in traffic accidents are under the age of 40. Furthermore, winter tires alone are insufficient.
