Abstract
Many researchers found that traffic accidents occur mainly because of driving stress and driving behavior. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of roadway conditions on driving stress by using Heart Rate Variability (HRV). The study used a heart rate sensor, and a video camera to collect data and carried out time-domain and frequency-domain analysis of HRV by using the MATLAB analysis software. The results showed that drivers experience different driving stresses depending on roadway conditions. In particular, highly crowded places and those requiring attention such as mixed roads, lane-changing points, jaywalking places, rough and bad pavements, traffic congestion areas, and flyover are the most stressful segments along the roadway for drivers.
