STUDY OBJECTIVES Most studies of sleepy driving have been carried out in driving simulators. A few studies of real driving are available, but these have used only a few sleepiness indicators. The purpose of the present study was to characterize sleepiness in several indicators during real driving at night, compared with daytime driving. DESIGN Participants drove 55 km (at 90 km/h) on a 9-m-wi...

Many complications of diabetes can potentially impair driving performance, including those affecting vision, cognition and peripheral neural function. Hypoglycemia is a common side-effect of insulin and sulfonylurea therapy, impairing many cognitive domains necessary for safe driving performance. ...

This paper shows that the driving simulator may be used as a platform in which to study workload and workload performance relationship. The participants were 8 adults with valid driver’s licenses. After a familiarization drive participants drove a route with five equidistant and symmetrical segments using a map and turn-by-turn directions. Upon completion participants retraced their journey wit...
