Sixteen (16) test participants were trained on destination entry procedures with four commercially available route guidance systems, as well as the dialing task on a commercially available wireless cellular telephone and on manually tuning an after-market car radio. (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration).Įntire Paper AbstractThe influence of individual differences on driver distraction was examined in this study. (Transportation Research Center Inc.), & Goodman, M. Individual Differences and In-Vehicle Distraction Whileĭriving: A Test Track Study and Psychometric EvaluationĪuthors: Tijerina, L., Parmer, E. The subjects reacted significantly slower to an unexpected event in the first two minutes of the telephone conversation and were, for a large part of the telephone conversation, unaware of traffic movements around them. However, significant differences were found in choice reaction time, especially in the beginning stages of the telephone conversation, and in situation awareness. The driving task was relatively easy, and the young drivers studies were able to have a hands-free telephone conversation and perform well with respect to lateral position, the variation in lateral position of the car, and speed maintenance. The performance indicators used were choice reaction time, braking profile, lateral position, speed, and situation awareness. (Verkeersadviesburo Diepens en Okkema, Eindhoven, The Netherlands).Įntire Paper AbstractThe driving performance of 15 subjects in a simulated road environment has been studied both with and without a hands-free telephone conversation. (Transport Research Laboratory, Crowthorne, England) & Hooijmeijer, V. The Influence of the Use of Mobile Phones on DriverĪuthors: Parkes, A. Please tell us about your experience with these technologies Be sure to take or view results of our informal polls. Although specific in-vehicleĭevices are emphasized here, comment and discussion relevant to other non-technological or conventional sources ofĭistraction are also welcome. To provide an avenue for drivers to share their experiences with, and impressions of these technologies so thatīenefits of these systems can be realized without causing unsafe driver distraction.
Night vision systems, wireless Internet, and information and entertainment systems, among others. This page is devoted to discussions regarding specific in-vehicle technologies: cell phones, navigation systems, In-Vehicle Technologies: Experience & Research
