Overview

Background & policy context:

Driver distraction and fatigue are a problem because, as remarkable as our abilities are, we humans are fallible and our abilities have limitations. Driver distraction and fatigue incorporates elements of both limitations and fallibility. On top of our limitations and fallibilities, driving a vehicle is a surprisingly complex task that involves numerous elements.

Objectives:

The objective of the project is to find out the information about the influence of road engineering on drivers distraction and fatigue.
