This is the first controlled quantitative analysis on the
visual distraction effects of audio-visual route guidance in
simulated, but ecologically realistic driving scenarios with
dynamic maneuvers and self-controlled speed (N = 24). The
audio-visual route guidance system under testing passed the
set verification criteria, which was based on drivers’
preferred occlusion distances on the test routes. There were
no significant effects of an upcoming maneuver instruction
location (up, down) on the in-car display on any metric or
on the experienced workload. The drivers’ median
occlusion distances correlated significantly with median incar
glance distances. There was no correlation between
drivers’ median occlusion distance and intolerance of
uncertainty but significant inverse correlations between
occlusion distances and age as well as driving experience
were found. The findings suggest that the visual distraction
effects of audio-visual route guidance are low and provide
general support for the proposed testing method.

Visual distraction effects of in-car text entry methods : Comparing keyboard, handwriting and voice recognition
Kujala, Tuomo; Grahn, Hilkka (ACM, 2017)Three text entry methods were compared in a driving simulator study with 17 participants. Ninety-seven drivers’ occlusion distance (OD) data mapped on the test routes was used as a baseline to evaluate the methods’ ... -
Impacts of Touch Screen Size, User Interface Design, and Subtask Boundaries on In-Car Task's Visual Demand and Driver Distraction
Grahn, Hilkka; Kujala, Tuomo (Elsevier, 2020)Visual distraction by secondary in-car tasks is a major contributing factor in traffic incidents. In-car user interface design may mitigate these negative effects but to accomplish this, design factors’ visual distraction ... -
Visual Distraction Effects between In-Vehicle Tasks with a Smartphone and a Motorcycle Helmet-Mounted Head-Up Display
Grahn, Hilkka; Kujala, Tuomo (Association for Computing Machinery, 2018)Besides motorists, also motorcyclists need safer user interfaces to interact with useful applications on the road. In this paper, distraction effects of in-vehicle tasks conducted with a head-up display (HUD) for ... -
Refining distraction potential testing guidelines by considering differences in glancing behavior
