Abstract
The acceptance of route guidance advice by motorists is expected to occur only whenever such advice is experienced to be valid and reliable. Two factors may cause route guidance systems to provide motorists with unreliable advice: (1) the traffic information constituting the basis for guidance advice is inaccurate; and, (2) the impact of a large fraction of motorists responding to the guidance, and the subsequent overreaction that occurs, is ignored whenever the guidance advice is being set.
