The study explores the laws of landscape influence on driver driving stability by analyzing and processing four quantitative factors reflecting highway landscape factors, including plant spacing, plant height, plant color, and traffic markings, and then combines them with driving experience. The stability model was used to validate the relationship between the landscape and driver behavior. The study found that a plant height of 6 m, spacing of 8 m, reasonable plant color, and appropriate traffic markings on a mountainous highway landscape in Xianning County are conducive to driving stability and improve road safety. The research results can provide theoretical support for highway landscape design and help to conduct traffic safety theory research12 pagesPDFen©2023 Southern African Transport Conferencelandscape influencedriving stabilityArticle
