--- Quote from: cdev on December 24, 2018, 04:16:46 pm ---Its a laudable goal preventing drunken driving. Another related problem is people falling asleep, sleep deprivation of drivers on the road. But I would be especially overjoyed if someone could figure out how to prevent the huge number of accidents caused by people using personal electronics while driving, distracting drivers. Statistics that I have seen make me suspect that is a very serious problem. When you get your drivers license, don't fall in the trap of doing it. Simply talking on a cell phone, even with a hands free device increases the likelihood of a serious accident more than 20 times. --- End quote --- Gaze detection is a working technology. Just use a series of IR cameras and extrapolate where the driver is looking. It could also backup the inebriation detection by recognizing overly dilated pupils. |

Probably easier to go about this another way. Increased patrols cracking down hard on people caught playing with their phones while driving, I see it every day despite the fact that it's illegal here. Increase the punishment and make it a felony to cause an accident while using a mobile device. If we started making it hurt and locking people up, maybe society would finally get the message. |
