Project description
Increasing road safety awareness through driver assessment
Driver competence plays a crucial role in road safety. However, a driver’s capability is affected by numerous internal factors (age, experience and judgement), concurrent physical and psychological factors (stress, tiredness and preoccupation) and external factors (weather, time of day, speed, road conditions and traffic volume). The aim of the EU-funded i-DREAMS project is to establish a driver and road environment assessment and monitoring system that will define a safety tolerance zone for drivers. By considering all driving-related influences, the system will gauge a driver’s ability to safely operate a vehicle. It will also provide real-time alerts during a trip and make recommendations after a trip (through a smartphone app) when tolerable limits are reached, thus mitigating driving risks.
