The plan is to enroll a total of more than 3,000 drivers in six different states in what’s called the Strategic Highway Research Program’s Naturalistic Driving Study. Investigators will install a data collection system in participants’ cars that measures [--4--] of driver activity.

安全駕駛需牢記 有什么事在開車的時候做會很危險呢？擺弄收音機(jī)？點根香煙？一邊調(diào)整座椅一邊給百吉餅加點黃油？又或者最危險的就是年幼的時候開車？ 美國國家科學(xué)院交通研究委員會正著手一個研究項目以找出會讓司機(jī)和馬路上其他人陷入危險的事情，希望街道能更加的安全。 這項計劃共有來自6個不同州的3000多名司機(jī)參加，被稱為戰(zhàn)略性公路自然駕駛研究。調(diào)查者將在受試者的車上安裝數(shù)據(jù)收集系統(tǒng)，以測量司機(jī)的一系列活動。傳感器包括視頻攝像機(jī)，加速極，GPS和用來定位前方車輛的雷達(dá)。同時追蹤的還有交通狀況，光線程度和天氣情況。 該研究將在西雅圖、坦帕灣、達(dá)拉謨、北卡萊羅納、布魯明頓、印第安納、水牛城、紐約和賓夕法尼亞中心地區(qū)尋找司機(jī)。更多消息請登錄。不過要等你的車完全停下來哦~
