Simulated driving performance coupled with driver behaviour can predict the risk of sleepiness-related car accidents.

چکیده
Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) is associated with the risk of sleepiness-related car accidents and worse driving simulator performances. Nevertheless, driving simulator studies failed to predict the real-world accident risk. Two-thirds of patients with OSAS will never experience a car crash, so that restricting their driving licence because of an OSAS diagnosis is not feasible.

متن کاملDriver fatigue and highway driving: a simulator study.
Long duration of driving is a significant cause of fatigue-related accidents on motorways or major roadways. The fatigue caused by driving for extended periods acutely impairs driver alertness and performance and can compromise transportation safety. This study quantitatively measured the progression of driver fatigue and identified the conservative safe duration of continuous highway driving. ...
