However, the human experience of commuting involves more than just reaching a destination or assuming the role of a driver. Factors like personal driving style and courtesy towards fellow road users are integral to the driving experience but often overlooked in the development of driving algorithms for automated vehicles. In this study, we explored the needs of passengers in highly automated vehicles. A qualitative use case analysis was conducted (N=16). In a second study, N=15 participants experienced the resulting use cases in an automated vehicle. In these scenarios, they were able to interact with the automation through a cooperation HMI. Results indicate that most participants expressed a desire for cooperative driving, albeit varying with the driving situation. Moreover, allowing cooperation improves passengers' overall experience by satisfying psychological needs for autonomy, security, competence, and relatedness.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MalvePeintnerSadeghianetal.2023, author = {Malve, Bhavana and Peintner, Jakob and Sadeghian, Shadan and Riener, Andreas}, title = {"Do You Want to Drive Together?" - A Use Case Analysis on Cooperative, Automated Driving}, booktitle = {15th International ACM Conference on Automotive User Interfaces: Adjunct Conference Proceedings}, publisher = {ACM}, address = {New York}, isbn = {979-8-4007-0112-2}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1145/3581961.3609871}, pages = {209 -- 214}, year = {2023}, language = {en} }
