隨著世界各國機動車輛快速成長，衍生出許多交通問題。因此世界各國積極發展智慧型運輸系統，期藉由資訊與通訊等科技使車、路智慧化，輔助駕駛者，提升運輸系統之安全與效率。而近年來國際上有越來越多的駕駛模擬系統建置完成，駕駛模擬系統的運用剛好符合推動智慧型運輸系統所亟需的實驗分析平台，駕駛模擬系統除了能夠從傳統的道路交通安全的角度，來協助駕駛人與車輛、道路及週遭環境之間的相互關係與問題及其改善方法以外，更能協助實踐智慧型運輸系統，從產品設計、製造到實際的道路使用等一連串過程中所需要進行的實驗與測試等工作。有鑑於此，本研究針對台灣交通安全事故的主要肇事原因，發展適當功能的車上警示系統(如：超速警示、視線死角警示、安全車距警示)，並針對各項車上警示系統功能，利用駕駛模擬系統了解駕駛者在各項警示系統之下之反應，運用問卷詢問駕駛者對警示系統功能的整體感受，期能綜合主觀及客觀兩種角度建構適合國內民眾之警示功能之產品雛型。實驗結果顯示各類警示系統資訊的提供確實有必要，而不同的警示方式對受測者沒有顯著的影響；另外問卷結果顯示受測者在受測後對各項警示系統的購買意願皆增加，表示在經過親身體驗各類警示系統後，受測者了解到系統的效果，而增加購買意願。未來可利用駕駛模擬系統協助各廠商推出適合台灣民眾之警示系統，以降低國內之交通事故。

Due to fast growth of motorized vehicles, various traffic problems occur. Therefore, most countries around the world develop intelligent transportation systems (ITS) to resolve these problems. ITS applies information technology and communication networks to assist drivers for a safer and more efficient travel. Many driving simulator systems have been constructed worldwide in recent years. The application of driving simulator systems leads to the building of an analysis platform to evaluate ITS. The driving simulator systems not only help drivers from a fundamental perspective of traffic safety, but also help to practice ITS environment. As for these concerns, this study aims to the main causes of accidents in Taiwan to develop suitable warning systems on board (overspeed, obstacle, collision, car-following). This study understands drivers’ action by applying driving simulator systems and investigates drivers’ perception by questionnaires. It is expected to integrate subjective and objective perspectives to establish the suitable products of warning systems. The experimental results show the information provided by warning systems is needed and different types of warning don’t influence drivers obviously. Besides, the results of questionnaires show the purchasing intentions increase. This means the drivers understand the efficiency of warning systems after simulation experiments. In the near future driving simulator systems will be ready to help manufacture the suitable warning systems in Taiwan to enhance traffic safety.
