Following results are obtained that when the novice drivers encounter the oncoming vehicles, they fixate the vehicles at higher rate than the conflict objects and induce the traffic conflicts.

They cause other traffic conflicts because it is difficult for them to maintain their vehicle on the correct lane position.
