A novel model of driver steering control is proposed, incorporating models of the driver's
sensory dynamics and limitations. The model is based on the hypothesis that the driver's
steering strategy minimises an internal cost function optimally based on the noisy, delayed
information received from the sensory systems. Published results from experiments carried
out on pilots were used to identify parameter values for the new model, and to assess the
validity of the new modelling approach. The new model was found to fit the results very well …
