N2 - In the project of Energy-saving ITS Technology of Japan, reliable automatic platooning by trucks is a main objective for highway transportation. Meanwhile, simulating experiment is necessary to validate reliability and security of the automatic platooning. In our research group, an experimental platform was realized by integrating TruckSim software and control algorithm of the automatic platooning into a driving simulator system. By the experimental platform, on the assumption of system failure and an emergent deceleration of preceding truck without warning, driver behaviors for the emergency avoidance of following truck were studied. Especially, brake operations were analyzed in the different mean maximum decelerations of the following truck. The results validated that the emergent avoidance readily accomplishes when the mean maximum deceleration of the following truck is higher than the setting of the preceding truck.
