The Effects of Driving Behavior Determinants and Job Satisfaction on Taxi Drivers' Reckless Driving Behavior

Abstract

The researchers conducted a survey to determine how Driving Behavior Determinants (DBD) and Job Satisfaction affect taxi drivers' driving behavior. One hundred sixteen taxi drivers and 95 non-commercial drivers responded to the questionnaire. The results of the survey analysis suggested that the ‘Lack of Risk Sensitivity’ and ‘Low level of Law-abidance’, both sub-factors of DBD, were causing taxi drivers' speeding, drunk driving, distraction, and failure of fatigue management. Also, their low level of job satisfaction was contributing to the taxi drivers' speeding. These results illustrate the importance of any method used to reduce taxi drivers' dangerous driving behavior, as well as the importance of education for taxi drivers. We propose these methods for the improvement of driving behavior, related human factors, and job satisfaction in the discussion.
