Research on the "attentional demands of automobile driving" conducted on I-495 and Rt 128 outside of Boston in the mid-1960s. For more info see: www.cogsci.rpi....
John is one of my oldest friends in every sense of the word. His work on this was awesome in the 60's and he's only gotten better. I drive in Cairo, Egypt and honestly think that insane driving is one of life's underrated skills.

John is a legend. this audacious explanation is typical of what his communication is like even now as a powerful and impressive speaker proponent of experimentation and statistical analysis of it.. He is for sure, he is the most active nonagenarian in the HCI has seen yet.

Driving blindfolded on Rt. 128? Only one thing enters my mind: Wicked. Wicked Awesome.

Two conditions: one is that the frequency and duration of closure is constant but the car speed is under the driver's control. The DV there is driver speed. The other is that the speed is constant but the frequency and duration of closure is under driver control. The DV here is amount time closed.

Just age bounds. Yes, the sound of the servos would alert him to the comming blackout. They should conduct the experiment with some of the newer liquid crystal materials with charge variable opacity. Plus a Starbuck's cup, cigarette, and cellphone in the HOV.

The visor was lifted by a signal from the driver, triggered by the foot-switched dimmer. Blackout was the default state.

To replicate this experiment yourself without the need for the complicated visor arrangement, simply drive down an unlit road at night, switching your headlights on and off.

I drive on the road with 1000s of guys like this everyday. At least he's not using a cellphone too.
