What is psychology? |
Another phrase I came across is that 'approaching the [road traffic fatalities] issue from a human-centred, rather than an engineering/physics-based perspective promises to render even greater return in the prevention of these awful events' |
Let's start with an example of an accident hot-spot at a bend in a road |
A typical engineering solution would be to add road signs, road markings, anti-skid surfacing, a crash barrier, and a 40 MPH speed limit |
Therefore we need to change the misperception caused by this line of trees |
The next section focuses on why we make mistakes and how understanding this can help us design better roads
