| Summary | The causes of traffic accidents in Taiwan are not only related to vehicles and roads, but also to drivers’ physical conditions, psychological conditions and behavior. In the research, literatures on driver education and driving tests have been reviewed. Medical rules for drivers in these five countries (Australia, Britain, New Zealand, Canada and U.S.A.) have been collected. Especially, the regulations on vision disorders, psychological disorders, and medicine are analyzed in detail in this report. The six modules (including Cognitrone, Reaction Test, Visual Pursuit, Determination Test, Tachistoscopic Traffic Test Mannheim for Screen, and Peripheral Perception) of "Psycho Diagnostics with the Vienna Test System (VTS)", which may be used to evaluate drivers' psychological factors, have been used in a pilot study. In addition, the "traffic accident database integrated system" constructed by IOT has been used to analyze the correlation between medical records and traffic accident risks, and the correlation between violation and traffic accident risks. The short, medium and long-term frameworks of driver monitor system and several suggestions are proposed for further study. |
