Abstract
Semi-autonomous driving has been found to require less cognitive resources from drivers. It is not immediately clear if engaging in secondary tasks such as audio learning is safe in a semi-autonomous driving situation, especially considering the finding that semi-autonomous drivers tend to be less engaged. The current study investigated the effects of audio learning during a simulated semi-autonomous driving situation. Our results indicated that audio learning could delay warning message reaction time, and drivers had worse audio learning performance in a simulated semi-autonomous driving situation. Implications of current findings on driver safety, audio learning, and forensic practices are described in the discussion section.
