Abstract

This study examined the perception of driving ability of drivers under stressful situation and it attempted to collect the base data in an effort to prevent the traffic accidents by the women drivers. For this purpose, 180 drivers residing in the Seoul and Gyeonggi region were selected to find out how they perceive their driving ability and driving ability of the others, and in particular, study was focused on in what kind of situation female drivers felt most stress out. Looking in relation to the driving ability, female drivers tend to assess overly high on driving ability of male drivers while making excessively low on the abilities of other female drivers. Looking into the stress of female drivers while driving, the female drivers experience more stress during driving compared to the male drivers. This type of result indicates that the women lack the confidence on driving abilities while experiencing severe stress on the driving performance.
