The disclosure relates to technology for monitoring driver attentiveness in a vehicle. A driver distraction system collects vehicle data and scene information from the vehicle while traveling on a route. The vehicle data and scene information are then processed to generate a reference heat map. At the same time, the driver distraction system may capture a gaze of a driver to track a gaze direction and duration of the driver while driving the vehicle on the route. The gaze direction and duration are processed to generate a driver gaze heat map. The driver gaze heat map and reference heat map are analyzed to determine a level of driver distraction of the driver in the vehicle, and a recommendation or warning is output to the driver of the vehicle according to the level of driver distraction.
