Modelling decisions of control transitions and target speed regulations in full-range Adaptive Cruise Control based on Risk Allostasis Theory

•A modeling framework is proposed for driver control decisions in full-range ACC.•The conceptual model behind it is grounded on the Risk Allostasis Theory (RAT).•Driver decisions were formulated using a continuous-discrete choice model framework.•This framework is able to address interdependencies across drivers' decisions.•The model is fully estimated based on empirical driver behaviour data.
