  • Abstract:
    This project centers on determining the relationship between the speeding fine function and driver behavior. A large part of this project entails searching all previous literature on speed limits, speeding fine functions, variance of highway speeds, and other forms of driver behavior. Special attention will be focused on how drivers use probability and cost (fines) to decide to drive a particular speed. In addition, simulations and models of driver behavior will be examined. Links between speeding fine functions and driver coordination will be highlighted, and methods of studying these links investigated. The second portion of this study determines a viable means to measure empirically the effects found in this study. Such means will be proposed as potential future studies.
