Abstract
WHY one gets that aching neck and those tired eyes after driving for long stretches is explained in this paper.
A brief qualitative study of the motion of the driver and passenger in the front seat of an automobile is given here. The author provides a reasonable explanation for some of the commonly observed kinds of driver fatigue and points the way for some improvement in the dynamic comfort of automobile seats.
