Different from the existing methods, the paper analyzes driver route choice behavior based on frequent routes, which are the routes chosen by drivers frequently. In the method, route type preferences and frequent route popularity are analyzed. In the end, an application case in China is introduced and experiment results about taxi driver route choice behavior are shown.
