Risky lane-changing (LC) behavior adversely affects traffic safety, especially on snowy and icy surfaces. However, due to the particularity of the snowy and icy surfaces and the scarcity of data, research on risky lane-changing behavior (RLCB) under extreme scenarios is insufficient. Therefore, this study presents a novel research framework aimed at selecting key risk characterization indicators (RCIs) and identifying RLCB on highways using driving simulation data on snowy and icy surfaces.
