Abstract

It seems to be dangerous to use a cellular phone while driving since it increases driver's mental stress and makes driver's reaction time slow. This study is to investigate driver's psycho-physiological responses on mobile telephoning while driving. Among the three experimental factors (mobile-phone types, message IODs over mobile-phone, road types), only the message IODs over mobile-phone changed R-R intervals of electrocardiograph significantly. This result suggests that the regulations on the mobile telephoning while driving be changed.
