An important question in automated driving research is how quickly drivers take over control
of the vehicle in response to a critical event or a take-over request. Although a large number …

To increase the safety in use of automated vehicles, Human Factors research has focused
primarily on driver performance during take-over situations. However, surveys on public …

In conditionally automated driving, drivers do not have to monitor the road, whereas in
partially automated driving, drivers have to monitor the road permanently. We evaluated a …

Background Meta studies on factors contributing to take-over performance did not include
the design of take-over request (TOR) signals, other than the modality at which TORs are …

Partially automated driving releases the driver from controlling the vehicle, but the driver still
needs to monitor the driving situation steadily and be able to take over the control in critical …

Driver assistance systems have been in use for a decade and the automated vehicles are
expected to hit the market soon. Collaboration between drivers and assistance systems …

One of the challenges of automated road transport is to manage the coexistence of
conventional and highly automated vehicles, in order to ensure an uninterrupted level of …
