Abstract
Driver can be distracted by many reasons, the most
typical being: In-vehicle devices, talking with a
passenger or talking on the phone, objects outside of the
car, or simply anything causing eyes-off or brains-off
from the primary task, driving. The magnitude of
distraction has been estimated. According to NHTSA
distraction plays a role in 25% of the police reported
accidents, and according to SWOV 2 - 25%. In many sources
the magnitude was estimated even larger. In addition to
the drivers, distraction is a problem for other road
users, too.
