文摘

Awareness of the characteristics of other transport modes can affect road accident risks. We study perspective-taking ability, with the driving licence as a deciding factor. Senior citizen pedestrians without a licence are likely to be involved in more accidents. Those who had a two-wheeler licence have lower left-turn entanglements risks (Japan is left-driving). Educational interventions should encourage users to consider others’ perspectives.
