The worst performance was observed when drivers were required to regain control of driving in the automated mode while distracted by the secondary task. Blink frequency patterns were more consistent for manual than automated driving but were generally suppressed during conditions of high workload.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Highly automated driving did not have a deleterious effect on driver performance, when attention was not diverted to the distracting secondary task.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Application:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>As the number of systems implemented in cars increases, an understanding of the implications of such automation on drivers\u2019 situation awareness, workload, and ability to remain engaged with the driving task is important.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/0018720812442087","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,4,6]],"date-time":"2012-04-06T02:08:41Z","timestamp":1333678121000},"page":"762-771","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":337,"title":["Highly Automated Driving, Secondary Task Performance, and Driver State"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"54","author":[{"given":"Natasha","family":"Merat","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.
