Description
Summary:This study aims to classify the driving styles (DS) in Malaysia by using the Multidimensional Driving Styles Inventory (MDSI) for drivers in Malaysia. Users of the future automated vehicles (AV) will usually prefer their vehicles to drive like themselves. The driving style of the AV need to be humanised to prevent the technology from being ignored and to avoid causing any health-related problems. This research also intends to find the correlation between the personality traits (trust to the automated system and desire for control) with the Malaysian's driving styles. Besides, the differences between the sociodemographic variables with the style has also been studied. Previously, this MDSI study has been performed in Malaysia but was carried out in English while in this study, it was carried out in the Malay language. A total of 430 respondents took part in this study. The MDSI was analysed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA), Pearson correlation analysis, Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis test. The results revealed five Malaysian driving styles factors: careful, risky, angry-impatient, dissociative, and anxious. The Pearson correlation results show that careful drivers have a significant effect on trust and desire for control while the angry-impatient drivers show a significant effect with the desire for control. The results of the sociodemographic variables show significant effects with careful, risky, angry-impatient and anxious driving styles. The dissociative driving style shows no significant effect on the sociodemographic variables
