Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The data of expert drivers and elderly drivers when passing through non signalized intersections was gathered using a driving simulator. The eye movement of drivers were recorded by using an eye tracker and both drivers' behaviors were compared. Expert drivers allocated the attention and time for objects to predict the risk of collisions, furthermore, they confirm the safety efficiently because they use the straight gaze and peripheral vision. Therefore, the total time in the intersections are short, though they confirmed the safety of both side several times. The confirmation the safety behavior of some elderly drivers resembles that of expert drivers, however, some drivers showed risky behavior. The obtained velocity data and the confirmation the safety behavior in this study were similar to that of our previous studies, however, this research enabled to refer to the observing time and importance of both eye gaze and peripheral vision as we expected.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
超高齢化社会である我が国において,高齢者の生活のQOL(Quality of life)を維持または向上させることは重要な課題である.特に地方在住の高齢者にとって,自動車は生活をする上で欠かせない.高齢者が安全運転を続けるためには,ドライバ自身の安全運転に対する意識の向上や安全運転行動の維持も必要である. 高齢者が犯しやすい運転ミスを明らかにすることにより,高齢者を対象にした安全運転講習等で,安全な運転行動がどのようなものか伝達しやすくなることが期待される.
