Comparison study by computer simulation of the driver's visual part-task during left and right freeway merging maneuvers. Paper presented at the 51st Annual Meeting of the Highway Research Board HRB, Washington, D.C., January 1972.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a quantifiable difference in the mechanical elements of the driver's visual part-tasks associated with left on-ramp merges as compared with mirror-image right on-ramp merges. A computer model was developed to stimulate dynamically the right merging.
