Abstract

Human physiological functions and psychological levels ordinarily show a certain range of fluctuation as well as a number of distinguishing characteristics. A full understanding of the true nature of these human factors and measures to compensate for their weak points are indispensable to safe driving. The principal reason why drivers are the cause of more than 90% of all traffic accidents lies in the limited reliability of human physiological and mental functions.
