Abstract

In order to study the influence of different drivers and vehicle speeds on the dynamics of smart cars when the driving rights are switched; this paper analyzes them through driving experiments. This experiment recruited 16 participants, and built a virtual experimental platform for man-machine co-driving, and designed an experimental program at three speeds of 50, 80, and 120 km/h based on 8 s early warning time interval for driving rights to take over. And the experimental data is processed and analyzed by K-means clustering. The results show that the driver’s age and driving experience affect the driver’s take-over behavior and the dynamics of the vehicle. The take-over behavior taken by the high driving experience or young driver in the process of driving right switching can ensure that the vehicle has better stability. On the one hand, the increase in vehicle speed will affect the driver’s take-over behavior. On the other hand, it will cause the nonlinear characteristic of the vehicle to be significant and the driving stability of the vehicle to be worse.
