Research on driving fatigue and task time of locomotive drivers

摘要

Continuous driving task of drivers will lead to psychological unbalance and physical unbalance, and bring on the driving fatigue sequentially. Task time affects the degree of driving fatigue, which is validated in this paper by testing fatigue index for the accident group and the non-accident group with experimental method. The results indicate that the influence of task time on driving fatigue is different evidently between driving in the day or at night and between different age groups (p<0.05). But there is no obvious difference between the accident group and the non-accident group for the same task condition.
