NHTSA Driver Distraction Research: Past, Present, and Future
نویسنده
چکیده
Driver distraction is a high priority topic for NHTSA. NHTSA has concerns that drivers are making potentially dangerous decisions about when to interact with in-vehicle technologies while driving and that this trend may accelerate as new technologies become increasingly available and easier to use. NHTSA has conducted research in the area of driver distraction and workload since 1991. The objective of this research is to understand the factors that contribute to driver distraction and to develop methods to assess the extent to which in-vehicle technologies may be distracting to drivers. This paper will summarize past NHTSA research in the area of driver distraction and workload, provide an overview of current ongoing research, and describe upcoming research that will be conducted using the National Advanced Driving Simulator (NADS).

ITE JOURNAL / JULY 2003 INTRODUCTION The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has estimated that driver inattention is a causative factor in 25–30 percent of police-reported traffic crashes in the United States— approximately 1.2 million crashes per year.1,2 An inattentive driver may be distracted temporarily from the driving task by something inside or outside the vehicle, ma...
متن کاملDetecting driver distraction
The increasing use of in-vehicle information systems (IVISs), such as navigation devices and MP3 players, can jeopardize safety by introducing distraction into driving. One way to address this problem is to develop distraction mitigation systems, which adapt IVIS functions according to driver state. In such a system, correctly identifying driver distraction is critical, which is the focus of th...
متن کاملAnalysis and Classification of Driver Behavior using In-Vehicle CAN-Bus Information
This paper describes recent advances in the analysis and classification of driver behavior in actual driving scenarios. We employ data obtained from the UTDrive corpus to model driving behavior and to detect if distraction due to secondary tasks is present. Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are used to capture the sequence of driving characteristics acquired from the vehicle’s CAN-Bus (Controller Are...
