EFFECT OF AGE OF THE DRIVER ON THE DYNAMICS OF STATE CHANGING IN A TRAFFIC JAM

Authors

Abstract

The normal functioning of the city transportation system largely depends on the technology of traffic management. Malfunctions of this technology leads to major changes in the characteristics of the traffic flows of the city street and road network. Thus there is an uneven flow distribution which lead to exceeding the traffic intensity over a bandwidth of some sections of streets and roads. There are traffic jams and congestion, which greatly reduces the efficiency of the city's transport system, lead to an increase in psychological and emotional drivers of tension and a temporary disruption of some of their psycho-physiological functions.
The study is aimed at assessing the impact of the duration of traffic congestion on the functional status of drivers of different ages and temperaments.
To do this, the graphs deals with the joint impact of the driver's age and the initial state on the index of activity of regulatory systems in the driver's traffic congestion.
In the driver-phlegmatic congestion does not adversely affect, but rather, his condition gradually improved. Analysis of the graphs shows that drivers of all considered types of temperaments and ages but phlegmatic, with an initial normal state before the traffic congestion, further stay in the tube leads to a deterioration in the functional state. Drivers of all ages-melancholic value of the functional state in traffic congestion increases gradually with any initial state.
In sanguine and choleric all ages, the initial state of which is equal to four and the higher the score, the functional state while in a traffic jam, first returned to normal, and then begins to deteriorate. The change in traffic congestion conditions respond better drivers choleric.
If the initial state of the driver and the driver-sanguine, choleric person of any age while in traffic congestion is four points, the functional state aligned to six minutes if five - in the ninth minute when the six - to the twelfth minute.
Keywords: road congestion, the functional state, the rate of activity of regulatory systems, temperament.
