Drivers were asked to perform a distracting secondary task while their vehicles were occasionally pushed to the side of the roadway to encourage lane departures. Three lane departure warning treatments were investigated: no warning, an auditory warning, and a tactile warning using steering wheel vibration. Overall drivers’ corrective steering responses suggested that both the presence of a lane departure warning and characteristics of the roadway environment influenced the magnitude of the steering corrections observed.Konferens: FAST-zero'15: 3rd International symposium on future active safety technology toward zero traffic accidents, 2015, Gothenburg
