Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 運輸與物流管理學系 === 106 === The definition of defensive driving is to protect life,  time and money in a situation where it is not able to control the surrounding environment and other people's behavior. This study surveyed a total of 933 valid samples from drivers across Taiwan. It was attempted to design a driving behavior questionnaire under different road design scenarios to measure the difficulty of the test questions and the frequency of the defensive driving through the Rasch model, and to explore the affecting factors through the values of the measurement. The results show that people are more likely to ignore the defensive driving on general roads. The correlation analysis revealed that male, higher educated, more experienced, higher daily driving time, strong driving confidence, casual users of a scooter and people with higher risk perceptions will more likely to drive defensively, and drivers who often drive aggressively are less likely to take defensive driving behavior on the road. It is recommended to promote education or design through the defensive driving items that are less implemented by the public and groups with low frequency of defensive driving behavior to enhance the safety of roads.
