Abstract

Theoretical and field studies of automobile path deviations while drivers attempted to steer along a straight path with their vision occluded, were done. Vehicle displacements under these conditions were found to be smaller than displacements when drivers had no steering control and were also smaller at higher speeds. A discussion is added.
