Summary:A motorist information survey (ibid., p.93-100) has identified Seattle commuter types, behaviors and decision-making processes. This information can be used to design motorist information systems intended to impact and modify commuter behavior by increasing the efficiency with which existing transportation facilities are used. Central to the design of these systems is the targeting of susceptible commuter subgroups and the tailoring of information to lead these targeted audiences to modify their commuting behavior. A description is given of the general approach of using advanced driver information systems to alleviate urban congestion, and a specific strategy for designing real-time motorist information to impact commuter behavior and decision-making.< >
