Abstract

A Danish Intelligent Speed Adaptation trial with company cars was concluded in November 2008. It included 26 cars and 51 non-voluntary drivers. Results presented here are regarding attitudes to behaviour in traffic and to Intelligent Speed Adaptation. In general the trial has increased the drivers' awareness of speed limits but hardly changed the drivers' attitude to what constitutes dangerous behaviour in traffic. Further, ISA was assessed as more positive for company cars than for private cars. Moreover, respondents from this trial were more aware of risk in traffic than were young drivers in another Danish Intelligent Speed Adaptation trial.
