Fatigue and Driving: An International Review

To support the AAA Road Safety Research Program’s research into fatigued driving, the AAA commissioned a foundational piece of work to scope the fatigued driving literature and policy landscape/s.  

The literature review, which included a thematic review of the international literature, has produced a professional and thorough final report that details what is known about the extent of fatigued driving, what legal and policy frameworks are effective, what factors contribute to fatigued driving, what countermeasures are effective in preventing fatigued driving (and why), and how fatigued driving can best be prevented.   The review also includes a summary of key researchers and research organisations in Australia and comparable overseas countries are working in the area of fatigued driving.
