Epilepsy and Traffic Safety

Epilepsia, 1993
Summary:We previously reported that drivers with epi lepsy have somewhat higher age‐adjusted rates of traffic accidents and moving violations than do drivers without epilepsy. We attempted to identify medical and other fac tors contributing to this increase.

Hypersomnolence and Traffic Safety

Sleep Medicine Clinics, 2017
Many people die or become disabled because of motor vehicle accidents. Scientific data suggest that sleepy drivers or those driving at odd hours are more likely to make driving mistakes. Patients with obstructive sleep apnea and narcolepsy have been found to exhibit higher rates of falling asleep while driving. Treatment enhances the vigilance of these

Mobile applications for traffic safety

2015 6th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom), 2015
This paper describes Centria's research work on improving traffic safety and traffic flow by developing mobile applications to support real-time decision making. Centria has utilized a wide range of mobile device built-in capabilities in the mobile applications it has developed.

Control for Traffic Safety-Safety of Traffic Control

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2003
Abstract Starting from a probabilistic safety concept and from traffic safety statistics, a systematic analysis of the control engineering functions is made, which have to be safeguarded for safe transport systems. These functions are then structured with respect to a number of different aspects.

Macroscopic models for traffic and traffic safety

Accident Analysis & Prevention, 1989
This paper describes models for traffic volumes and traffic safety. These models have a very simple mathematical form and consist of time parameters only. The first model assumes that fatality rates follow a negative exponential function. The second model assumes a logistic type of saturation model for traffic volumes. The models are applied to traffic

Traffic Safety Culture: A Primer for Traffic Safety Practitioners

2019
There is growing interest in “traffic safety culture” (TSC) as a key factor to manage and sustain safe roadway transportation systems, especially as more jurisdictions adopt targets of zero traffic fatalities and serious injuries. However, the theory, terminology, and methods involved in addressing TSC come from human and social science disciplines ...

Cognitive psychology in traffic safety

Theoretical Issues in Ergonomics Science, 2023
Improving traffic safety requires a better knowledge of cognitive Science, especially of the cognitive Ergonomics of road infrastructure and the vehicle–human interface. Driving is a complex task that involves different cognitive modules that have to coordinate simultaneously.
