Zusammenfassung

A number of automobile manufacturers have announced plans to bring automated driving technology to the road in the near future. It has been required from the ethics commission of the German Minister of Transport that the safety performance of automated driving must promise a reduction in damage in the sense of a positive risk result compared to human driving performance. Assessing the difference in safety performance between automated (or assisted) and manual driving involves a detailed
analysis of this replacement. An effective safety assessment method is the usage of multi-agent based traffic simulations. In this context, driver behavior models represent an essential core of such simulations. In the following paper an approach to model cognitive processes (especially mental situation representations) as well as
a representative collection of traffic situation pattern for cognitive modelling based on accident analysis will be investigated. Finally, results of a real driving study regarding driver gaze behavior in traffic pattern will be introduced.
