Abstract
Analysis of eye movements of young drivers travelling in an urban environment on two-lane dual carriageway roads, as they approach intersections, was performed with accent on responses to pavement markings. Preview distances of 35–70 m and 70–180 m were evaluated. In each case, the visual region was divided into three sections: centre – view ahead, horizontal line markings, and other areas. Horizontal road signalisation was observed seldom, by only 18–24% test participants, and mostly at the level of gazes, which suggests that the markings are used as a confirmation of other visual cues needed to properly position the vehicle. Measured were dissimilarities between different intersections: gazes from larger distance prevailed in cases of broad roadways, while the opposite was measured with smaller crossings. Fixations on horizontal markings were recorded rarely, but if they occurred, they were rather long: 0.18 s, as compared to 0.24–0.30 s for other visual regions. The gazes were recorded less frequently amongst experienced drivers, but if they occurred their number was not influenced by the drivers’ experience or sex.
