The current study has generated the green driver concept to evaluate the incorporation of green driver to negative outcomes reduction of road transportation. The study aimed to identify the green driver’s behaviors affecting safe traveling by engaging two research phases. Phase one was to identify the safe driving behaviors using Systematic literature review and Content Analysis methods. Phase one identified twenty-four (24) sub-factors under reckless driving behaviors cluster, and nineteen (19) sub-factors under safe driving practice cluster. Second phase was to establish the actual weight value of the sub-factors using Grounded Group Decision Making (GGDM) and Value Assignment (VA) methods, in order to determine the value impact of each sub-factor to green driving.

  • Threat and Alert Analytics in Autonomous Vehicles
    EPiC Series in Computing Volume 69, 2020, Pages 48{59 Proceedings of 35th International Confer- ence on Computers and Their Applications Threat and Alert Analytics in Autonomous Vehicles Aakanksha Rastogi and Kendall E. Nygard Department of Computer Science North Dakota State University, Fargo, ND, USA. {aakanksha.rastogi,[email protected]} Abstract Autonomous vehicles or self-driving cars emerged with a promise to deliver a driving experience that is safe, secure, law-abiding, alleviates traffic congestion and reduces traffic accidents. These self-driving cars predominantly rely on wireless technology, vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) and Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) networks, Road Side Units (RSUs), Millimeter Wave radars, light detection and ranging (LiDAR), sensors and cameras, etc. Since these vehicles are so dexterous and equipped with such advanced driver assistance technological features, their dexterity invites threats, vulnerabilities and hacking attacks. This paper aims to understand and study the technology behind these self-driving cars and explore, identify and address popular threats, vulnerabilities and hacking attacks to which these cars are prone. This paper also establishes a relationship between these threats, trust and reliability. An analysis of the alert systems in self-driving cars is also presented. keywords: Self-driving cars, advanced driver assistance systems, trust, reliability, ethics, security, threats, vulnerabilities 1 Introduction In recent years, human imagination, creativity, artificial intelligence and a relentless quest to expand dexterity of automobiles has led automobile engineers to design and engineer an automobile that is self-reliant, self-sufficient and self-driving. Imagining a future where a self-driving car run errands (such as picking up clothes from dry-cleaning) while you are still at work and reaching office just in time to pick you up when you are done, is not a far-fetched dream.
