2) Promotes the development of training and awareness programs for drivers and pedestrians to improve road safety.
3) Improves safe driving skills and the ability to adapt to emergencies and unforeseen situations on the road.
4) Can be used to assess drivers and pedestrians in order to identify strengths and weaknesses in the context of behavior on the road.
5) Contributes to the development of road policies and legislation from a psychological and behavioral perspective to create a safer road environment.
