Consciousness and Structure about Driver’s Traffic Safety Competence

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the consciousness and structure about driver’s traffic safety competence. A survey was conducted on 540 drivers. We carried out the confirmatory factor analysis based on the driver’s responses, and 3 factors were identified: F1, competence for danger anticipation; F2, competence for safety conservation; F3, competence for coping with accident. We found out that the consciousness structure of driver’s traffic safety competence includes these three components.
