Abstract

Man and the vehicle form a system of which the environment constitute the input and the modifications to this environment the output. An accident is a symptom of ill-functioning of the system. Fatigue can be considered as a type of disfunctioning of the system, but it is not possible to speak of a general effect of fatigue on road safety.
