Linda Ng Boyle is a Professor of Civil and Urban Engineering at New York University, with research interests spanning Human Factors, Transportation, Statistical Analysis, Traffic Safety, and Industrial Engineering. Her work explores the intersection of human behavior and technology in transportation systems, focusing on driver distraction, automation acceptance, and safety implications of real-time feedback. She investigates how cognitive load, visual disruption, and roadway conditions affect driver performance and safety. Her research also includes the evaluation of driver-vehicle interfaces, the impact of traveler advisory systems, and the statistical analysis of commuter behavior. Boyle’s studies aim to improve road safety through evidence-based design and policy recommendations.
