Automated driving has the potential to improve the safety and efficiency of future traffic and to extend elderly peoples' driving life, provided it is perceived as comfortable and joyful and is accepted by drivers. Driving comfort could be enhanced by familiar automated driving styles based on drivers' manual driving styles. In a two-stage driving simulator study, effects of driving automation and driving style familiarity on driving comfort, enjoyment and system acceptance were examined. Twenty younger and 20 older drivers performed a manual and four automated drives of different driving style familiarity. Acceptance, comfort and enjoyment were assessed after driving with standardised questionnaires, discomfort during driving via handset control. Automation increased both age groups' comfort, but decreased younger drivers' enjoyment. Younger drivers showed higher comfort, enjoyment and acceptance with familiar automated driving styles, whereas older drivers preferred unfamiliar, automated driving styles tending to be faster than their age-affected manual driving styles. Practitioner Summary: Automated driving needs to be comfortable and enjoyable to be accepted by drivers, which could be enhanced by driving style individualisation. This approach was evaluated in a two-stage driving simulator study for different age groups. Younger drivers preferred familiar driving styles, whereas older drivers preferred driving styles unaffected by age.
自动驾驶有潜力提高未来交通的安全性和效率，并延长老年人的驾驶年限，前提是它被视为舒适且愉悦，并为驾驶员所接受。基于驾驶员的手动驾驶风格的熟悉的自动驾驶风格可以提高驾驶舒适性。在一项两阶段驾驶模拟器研究中，考察了驾驶自动化和驾驶风格熟悉度对驾驶舒适性、愉悦感和系统接受度的影响。20名年轻驾驶员和20名年长驾驶员进行了一次手动驾驶以及四次不同驾驶风格熟悉度的自动驾驶。驾驶后通过标准化问卷评估接受度、舒适性和愉悦感，通过手持控制器评估驾驶过程中的不适感。自动化提高了两个年龄组的舒适性，但降低了年轻驾驶员的愉悦感。年轻驾驶员对熟悉的自动驾驶风格表现出更高的舒适性、愉悦感和接受度，而年长驾驶员则更喜欢不熟悉的自动驾驶风格，这些风格往往比受其年龄影响的手动驾驶风格更快。从业者总结：自动驾驶需要舒适且愉悦才能被驾驶员接受，这可以通过驾驶风格个性化来提高。这种方法在一项针对不同年龄组的两阶段驾驶模拟器研究中进行了评估。年轻驾驶员更喜欢熟悉的驾驶风格，而年长驾驶员更喜欢不受年龄影响的驾驶风格。
