Commuting, Transport Psychology, &
Road Safety Education
​What the project is about:
-
This project focuses on a wide array of areas, including public transport crowding, commuting stress, transport psychology, road safety education, as well as street and e-hailing.
​​
-
The rationale for addressing these areas is threefold:
-
the trend of motorisation has become a critical issue in Malaysia and led to various road safety issues,
-
for those who use public transport, the experience of overcrowding and commuting stress is real, and to some extent, influenced by psychological factors, and
-
the rise of e-hailing transportation has transformed the way we commute.
