Research on Evaluation Model for Secondary Task Driving Safety Based on Driver Eye Movements

This study was designed to gain insight into the influence of performing different types of secondary task while driving on driver eye movements and to build a safety evaluation model for secondary task driving. Eighteen young drivers were selected and completed the driving experiment on a driving s...
