Report on the findings of the population survey

In BRAVE a user-centric perspective will be adopted and is the premise for the work in other WPs. The analysis of the population survey results will therefore unveil needs, expectations and concerns on the individual level among drivers and other road users with a special focus on vulnerable road users (cf. T2.4). A special research issue in the WP2 focuses on social and cultural factors that shape individual attitudes and behavioural intentions towards the technology of automated vehicles. The detailed evaluation of socio-demographic and socio-economic subgroups in the population survey will shed light on different user-specific expectations. Gender issues will be covered prominently. Also mobility-specific comparisons (e.g. such as between car drivers and vulnerable road users) are of interest. These analyses give way for the targeted user-specific development of automated vehicles that yields the acceptance by all members of the society. The deliverable refers to the final consolidated version, but interim versions will be released in month M12 and M18 following BRAVE's agile, iterative and incremental approach. Furthermore the survey will incorporate questions to identify the most relevant scenarios and use cases of SoA automated driving system, which will be defined in T3.1 of WP3. The results of the survey will serve as guideline for subsequent tasks in WP3 and WP4
