The Given

Distraction of the driver's attention is one of the key aspects of research conducted by automotive companies. It concerns not only on-board devices, but also the factors outside the vehicle, such as advertising displays. Too much attention focused on advertisements can have negative impact on the driver's behaviour and driving quality. The 2-second distraction can more than double the risk of an accident. The paper presents the results of a simulator-based study, in which 60 drivers (including 30 women) age- 18-64 take part. All participants had a valid driving license and differed in their driving experience. It has been verified how the time of focusing the attention on the roadside advertisements affects the given safety and driving performance indicators.

Air Conduction

Bone-conduction technology has been around since the 1800s but using this technology in headphones is relatively new. Bone-conduction transmits sound through the bones of the skull. This research compared the effect of different auditory delivery methods (bone-conduction versus traditional air-conduction) on driving performance, story comprehension, and subjective workload. Results showed that auditory delivery method did not significantly affect driving performance or story comprehension. This supports one of the hypotheses that bone-conduction headphones are no more distracting than air-conduction speakers. There were significant differences in workload between driving conditions compared to non-driving conditions, but there was no difference in workload between bone-conduction headphones in driving conditions. Bone-conduction headphones do not impair story comprehension and may leave the ear canal open making it a viable option for use while driving.

The Right

Six novice drivers drove a 2.1-mi. neighborhood route and a 4.3-mi. freeway route. Eye movements (including blinks and glances to the vehicle's mirrors and speedometer) were videotaped. The visual behavior of a control group, consisting of four experienced drivers, was also videotaped on the same routes. The results showed that the novice drivers: (1) concentrated their eye fixations in a smaller area as they gained driving experience, (2) looked closer in front of the vehicle and more to the right of the vehicle's direction of travel than the experienced drivers, (3) sampled their mirrors less frequently than the experienced drivers, and (4) made pursuit eye movements on the freeway route while the experienced drivers made only eye fixations. These results suggest that the visual acquisition process of the novice drivers was unskilled and overloaded. Thus, the search and scan patterns of the novice drivers may be considered unsafe in terms of impairing the drivers’ ability to detect circumstances that have high accident potential. On this basis it is recommended that novice drivers be prohibited from driving on public roads until they achieve an acceptable level of vehicle handling control and develop skill in acquiring visual information.

Forty student drivers received various amounts of driving simulator and film-only pretraining to determine the transfer effectiveness of open-loop simulation using passive instructors in a driver education program. To measure the effects of previous driving experience, the simulator performance of eight licensed drivers was compared to the student drivers. Early in simulation, licensed drivers exhibited reliably better steering performance than the 6-hr. simulation pretraining students, but the reverse was true late in simulation. Six hr. of pretraining yielded significantly better transfer in terms of overall automobile driving performance on a McGlade Road Test than 3 hr. of pretraining regardless of whether the pretraining included instructional films alone or films used in conjunction with simulators. A component analysis of the first hour of driving performance revealed that the 6-hr. pretraining groups were superior to the 3-hr. group on a procedures dimension. In addition, the film-only pretraining groups were superior to the simulator groups in terms of a steering dimension during the first hour of transfer. Implications of these results are discussed in terms of improving simulators used in driver education.
