The purpose of this research is to consider the specification for realization of truck platoon by evaluating the social acceptance of it from nearby car and platoon drivers.
The subject experiment using a driving simulator was conducted, and then the data on the driving behavior, the biological reaction, and the questionnaire were analyzed comprehensively.
As a result, it was found that the truck platoon of short inter-truck distance may be accepted to be ideal only after the appropriate information from it to the neighboring traffic is provided.
In the future, we will also consider the inner-truck HMI, and then suggest the socially acceptable truck platoon system in consideration of these evaluation results.
