Vehicle tracking systems were installed on all DIRECT vehicles to help investigate the relationships between the drivers actual travel experiences and their opinions about the systems they used. The purpose of this report is to look more carefully at driver behavior as recorded by the tracking system and to see if this provides any further insight on the effectiveness of the DIRECT systems.The report first describes the tracking system and the traffic messages delivered to the drivers, then it goes on to analyze which drivers responded to the messages by diverting as shown by the tracking system.The last section addresses how the messages and diversions may have affected the drivers reported level of satisfaction with the system they used.
