| Research Abstract |
Driver is driving at a speed feels appropriate for a street from the atmosphere received from the whole street. And it is important to achieve the street that drives by a safe speed unconsciously for forming a safe living space. So, in this study made a survey of vehicle speeds, and analyzed the relationship between street structures and vehicle speeds. As a result, the elements to affect on various vehicle speeds are quantitatively clarified. This result suggested that road space improvement could be able to control the vehicle speeds.
