Factors Influencing Dangerous Driving Behavior Among Freight Transport Drivers at PT Nanda Persada Transport
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to examine the structural model of dangerous driving behavior among freight drivers at PT Nanda Persada Transport. The variables tested in this research are conscientiousness and safety climate as exogenous variables, and self-efficacy and emotion regulation as mediating variables. The main hypothesis of this study is that the influence of conscientiousness and safety climate on dangerous driving behavior, with self-efficacy and emotion regulation as mediating variables, fits the empirical data from freight drivers at PT Nanda Persada Transport. The participants in this study were 289 freight drivers at PT Nanda Persada Transport who met the criteria of having a Class B1 General Driver's License and a minimum of one year of work experience. The research instruments used were the Dula Dangerous Driving Index, UFFM-I Conscientiousness Scale, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ), General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Cross Industry Safety Climate (CISC). Data analysis was conducted using the Lisrel 8.7 program. The results showed that the theoretical model of the influence of conscientiousness and safety climate on dangerous driving behavior, with self-efficacy and emotion regulation as mediating variables, fit the empirical data, with RMSEA = 0.067, NNFI = 0.91, CFI = 0.93, RMR = 0.79, and NFI = 0.90. Self-efficacy and emotion regulation do not act as mediators between conscientiousness and dangerous driving behavior. Safety climate was found to have an influence on dangerous driving behavior.
