This study evaluated the distributions of driver eye fixations when following other vehicles. The aim was to describe the areas of the forward field of view that are most frequently fixated. Such information is important for selecting optimal locations for automobile brake lights: The brake lights that are closer to eye fixations are likely to result in shorter driver reaction times than brake lights farther away from the fixations. A head-mounted, corneal-reflection device was used to monitor eye fixations. The data were collected during daylight hours in slow-speed urban traffic. A total of 5,172 eye fixations were analyzed for three different lead cars. The results indicate that under the conditions of this study the eye fixations tended to concentrate on the rear-window area of the lead car. Furthermore, the frequency of the eye fixations was low in the neighborhood of the standard low-mounted brake lights.
