Abstract

This study measured aberrant driving behaviour using the Driver Behaviour Questionnaire (DBQ), one of the most widely used driving measurement instruments, and tested its factorial validity and reliability among Malaysia drivers. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed a three-factor structure comprising of violations, errors, and lapses. This three-factor structure accounted for 59.75 per cent of total variance. Descriptive analysis found that five of the most frequently occurring behaviours (between occasionally ‘2’ and quite often ‘3’) came from ‘violations’, one from ‘errors’, and another five most frequents were from ‘lapses’. Both violations and errors are potentially dangerous and have been reported to predict involvement in active accidents, although violations have been mainly related to crash involvement.
