Abstract

There is a multiple causation in most accidents, and attempts at control should involve consideration of the interaction between the driver, his equipment and the environment. A new concept has been developed which emphasizes the collaboration between the biological and engineering sciences. Some general principles are discussed for the arrangement and design of the equipment in the driver's working area.
