We report an experiment which investigated the performance and workloadeffects associated with the functional grouping of automated displays in a multi-task flight simulation. Eleven rated pilots performed tracking, systems monitoring, and target acquisition sub-tasks in manual conditions and when the targetingtask was automated.

Abstract:
Motorcycle-automobile accidents occur predominantly when the car driver turns left across the motorcyclist’s right-of-way. Efforts to decrease this specific collision configuration, through an increase in motorcycle conspicuity, have concentrated on the physical characteristics of the motorcycle and its rider.
