Abstract

Driving automation leads to meaningful changes in the role of the driver, from the primary party responsible for executing all dynamic driving tasks to the supervision of selective tasks in automated driving systems with varying levels of automation. In partially automated systems, drivers are required to resume control occasionally, either voluntarily or involuntarily. This paper aims at exploring human factors influencing the course of the takeover. Through a review of a large body of literature and a summary of observations, some particularly influential driver-related issues are identified. These issues include mental workload and distraction, situation awareness, and trust. Based on the consideration of these issues, the timing and the efficiency of driver’s takeover are analyzed.
