DRIVER BEHAVIOUR DURING THE REMOVAL OF THE FOOT FROM THE ACCELARATOR IN A CRITICAL DRIVING SITUATION

This scientific poster presentation studies driver physiological and behavioural responses. Automatic Nervous Systems (ANS) measurement tools are used to monitor at all times the attention and stress levels of the driver.Variations of ANS reponses had already been statistically correlated to different driving behaviour (correct or otherwise) during a critical braking situation. The study is based on the reconstruction of a situation where the removal of the foot from the accelerator result whilst on a curve. For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 873507.
