Abstract

This study is part of the story of fatigue as a factor in road safety. It is a study on micro-fatigue: it deals essentially with the phenomenon of drowsiness which may take possession of a driver, suddenly and unexpectedly. This brief shift in alertness-ranging from a view seconds to a few minutes appears to be quite common. Drowsiness is characterized by its fairly sudden onset.
