The researchers conducted a study of 18 experienced and 24 inexperienced drivers to test whether young drivers have more difficulty perceiving hazards when they are sleepy. Inexperienced drivers are more likely to be involved in sleepiness-related crashes than experienced drivers.

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
