Abstract

<p>Personal Mobility Vehicles （PMVs） are gaining remarkable popularity as a sustainable alternative transport mode for short distance trips. Before allowing PMVs on shared spaces in Asian cities with high pedestrian and cyclist demands, interactions between PMVs and other shared space users should be properly understood. This paper investigates Segway, which is currently one of the famous type of PMVs, riders’ reaction times under different mixed traffic and following conditions. As results suggest, under normal following conditions Segway riders respond differently for different modes of mixed traffic. Under unsafe conditions they tend to react similarly even the mode is different.</p>
