  physical and psychological states which are related to reduced driver alertness.
  
  Section 2 outlines the statistical evidence of the relationships between driver
  
  attention and traffic accident data. Section 3 details the prior research in the
  
  area. Section 4 describes the technology currently available for sensing
  
  degraded alertness in drivers. Section 5 provides preliminary conclusions with
  
  regard to research directions in the area. The appendices provide reproductions
  
  of the material describing proprietary alertness devices and the NASS (National
  
  Accident Sampling System).
