Prof. M. M. Mukhedkar Department of E&TC Engineering, DYPCOE, DYPCOE, Ambi, Talegaon Pune, India Abstract—One of the leading reasons for traffic accidents is distracted attention of driver. As day by day numbers of vehicles on road are increasing, the proportion of number of accidents is also increasing. Drivers with a low vigilance level suffer from marked decline in their abilities of percept...

Although distracted drivers are claiming more and more lives each year, drivers continue to perform dangerous behaviors behind the wheel of a moving vehicle. Of all driving distractions, texting and driving has proven to be one of the most dangerous. This research investigated the effect of text messaging on driver reaction, and whether the effect varied as a function of gender. Thirty-five Wic...

Distracted driving has been shown to be a safety issue in numerous studies. To combat this problem, in-vehicle technology, legislation, media interventions, and other methods have been proposed and attempted. However research indicates that the drivers themselves may circumvent, ignore, or not be able to react in time for these interventions to be effective. Therefore research into training pro...

background, aim, method, result) max 200 words: Driver distraction has been defined in many different ways. The most important difference is whether only visual inattention or also cognitive inattention should be included. Many different methods have been used to assess the prevalence and types of driver distraction that occur, and to describe the consequences in terms of driving performance an...

In order to design safe vehicles it is important to be able to evaluate in-vehicle systems to determine how distracting they are for people to use while driving. The Peripheral Detection Task (PDT) is a method for measuring the amount of driver mental workload and visual distraction in road vehicles. It is a secondary task measure where drivers must respond to random targets presented in their ...

In this article, the hazard-based accident duration model and reaction time due to various types of distractions are considered. This analysis is mainly considered T-junction or T-junctions like all other forms road geometries which more prone accident. The proposed constructed by using a electronics devices along with driving simulator, study behavior yang inexperienced drivers as well an expe...

A large body of evidence on traffic accidents indicates that distracted driving is a major cause accidents. To investigate the relationship between driver performance in both normal and states to discriminate which state based performance, simulator was used simulate drivers an urban road environment, distraction task designed motivate enter cognitive state. Data were collected from 80 each two...
