A control theoretic model of an automobile driver's performance while negotiating a rural intersection is discussed. The model parameterizes vehicle response data in a manner which can be used to aid in categorizing variations in response observed across intersections. The data so obtained can be interpreted as being influenced by roadway geometrics and the driver's objectives. Results obtained using data collected with test drivers in an instrumented vehicle in actual driving situations are discussed.
