Abstract
Inappropriate use of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), such as adaptive cruise control (ACC) and lane keeping assistance (LKA), may cause safety issues. In a driving simulator experiment, we examined how a specific driver characteristic, locus of control in traffic (T-LOC), influences the use of ADAS. It was found that without any ADAS training, the Self dimension of T-LOC, measuring the extent to which one believes they are responsible for their driving safety, was negatively correlated with time spent on secondary tasks after environmental cues became visible indicating a possible need for takeover. Further, with a responsibility-focused training, drivers with higher Self scores tended to take control over faster when necessary. The findings highlight the role of individual differences in the formation of driver behaviors associated with ADAS use. Investigation of other driver characteristics and incorporating them to the design of training paradigms are suggested.
