Abstract
In this chapter, different models of driver and driving behaviour are introduced and discussed with relation to their relevance to driving on rural roads. Firstly, models are presented which provide a framework into which other theories can be integrated. Secondly, individual differences are discussed; and thirdly, motivational models are introduced. The information needed as the input for motivational models is derived from perception and as such, models and theories of perception are summarised in a later chapter.
