Fatigue, sleepiness and reduced alertness as risk factors in driving

Abstract

The Institute of Transport Economics (Transportoekonomisk Institutt, TOEI) of the Norwegian Centre for Transport Research produced a report based on presentations at a workshop in Oslo, Norway in 2003, that focused on driver fatigue and sleepiness. The workshop was organized by TOEI as part of the European Union's Impaired Motorists, Methods of Roadside Testing and Assessment for Licensing (IMMORTAL) project. Topics covered in the report include: incidence of driver sleep and the role of sleep and fatigue in crashes; the biological basis of sleep, and medical and clinical aspects; simulator studies of fatigue indicators; eye and eyelid movements as fatigue indicators; in-car warning systems to prevent falling asleep while driving; and fatigue management among occupational drivers.
