PublicDownloadable Content
open in viewerGoogle Trends showed that public interest in “driverless cars” has increased ten times compared to a decade ago. At the same time, people may have concerns about this disruptive technology. In this study, we studied the public acceptance of autonomous vehicles in China, conducted surveys, and developed a game for participants to better understand automated driving technology, including its regulations, safety, efficiency, and related economic and environmental issues. Our research showed that Chinese generally have positive attitudes and an overall higher acceptance rate about self-driving cars. We also demonstrated games can be a somewhat useful tool to improve public acceptance of self-driving cars.
