The system can even detect the difference between a skilled driver who is visually anticipating a slide and countersteering correctly, and a driver who is playing catch-up, said Mr. Hill, the engineer.
Once engine is off and brake is set, Driver shouts, "Go! " Begin visually selecting trees as you pull into lot.
In addition, designated-driver fees for the visually impaired will now be waived at all Avis locations.
"Perhaps the most apparent reason is that the screening law removed visually impaired drivers from the road," wrote the researchers, led by Gerald McGwin Jr. of the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
"This law does seem to now allow drivers to still be visually and cognitively distracted from the road since they can now activate these hand-free systems, listen to their emails or texts and then respond verbally," Horton said.
Whatever the reason, the fact that visually impaired drivers who underwent a carefully designed treatment intervention theoretically grounded in validated models of behavior change, had similar crash rates to controls, suggests that educational interventions may have only limited value in promoting older driver safety.
They include designing systems so that they do not impair the driver's sight lines or "visually entertain the driver while driving".
Finally, an application of the flexible smelling e-skin for visually identifying drunken driver without any external electricity power has been demonstrated [98].
Both systems provide directions in spoken words as well as visually to encourage drivers to keep their eyes on the road.
Does an individualised education programme, promoting safe driving strategies, reduce the crash rate of visually impaired older drivers?
