In this second preliminary study, the possible impact of cabin distractions on the performance of young female road vehicle drivers was analyzed. Six female drivers under the age of 30 were filmed with GoPro cameras while driving. The potential negative impact on the performance of female drivers was analyzed using the method of analyzing the glance behavior of female drivers. Female drivers performed two driving segments: baseline and driving under the usual cabin distractions while keeping the road sections and external conditions on the road consistent for each driving segment and each type of cabin distraction. The driving segment under the cabin distractions included smoking while driving, consuming soft drinks from a PVC bottle, and using a mobile phone. A mobile phone was fixed on a rack under the central rear-view mirror and used for two types of cabin distractions: talking using a video link and solving the cognitive task set through a video link conversation. The performance of drivers exposed to cabin distractions was compared with the performance in baseline driving mode, both using the most important measures of the method of analyzing the gaze parameters of female drivers: the percentage of gaze in individual zones, the duration of each gaze by zones, the number of transitions between zones, and the number of zones in which the drivers looked. The results of this preliminary study will be used to design a final larger research blueprint on a larger sample of drivers with adequate gender - age representation.
