Is Talking to Your Car Dangerous? It Depends
本文探讨车载信息娱乐系统导致的认知分心问题，指出驾驶行为的复杂性使得简单判断“与车对话是否危险”难以成立，对驾驶安全研究和政策制定有参考价值。
Cognitive distraction represents an important and growing traffic safety issue, particularly with the increasing computerization of cars. The target paper in this special section describes a protocol for assessing the distraction potential of information and entertainment systems. Cognitive distraction has specific relevance to the challenges facing driving safety but also reflects the more pervasive challenge of generalizing findings in the face of complex contextual and compensatory influences. Peer commentaries from five driving safety experts sketch paths forward in assessing the distraction potential of in-vehicle information technology. A simple, definitive statement regarding the risk of talking to your car is appealing, but the complexity of driver behavior may make such a statement unachievable.
