Abstract

Abstract: In order to explore the influence of interfering car on attention distribution characteristics and guide new drivers to allocate their attention reasonably, real vehicle experiments in a freeway environment were carried out using eye movement instrument faceLAB 5. Eye movement data of 13 drivers were collected and recorded. And then, drivers attention distribution characteristics were analyzed when interfering car cutting in from different sides. Besides, drivers fixation transfer rules between different fixation areas were studied. The results show that in the process of interfering car cutting in,the driver mainly focuses on the front view, especially pays more attention to dynamic targets such as front vehicle and interfering car,and that the driver pays more attention to the side where interfering car cutting in.

Key words: traffic engineering, interfering car-following, Markov theory, attention, distribution characteristics
