Abstract
The article analyzes the influence of a human factor on road safety and the main
methods of its research. The main indicators of the functional state of the drivers, which most
accurately illustrate the change in the neuro-emotional stress while operating the vehicle in different
road conditions, are determined. The regularities of changing the functional state of the drivers who
were driving the vehicle along different categories of roads were established. It is revealed that the
geometric features of the highway that determine its category have a significant impact on the
performance of drivers, and, consequently, on the reliability of their work. The results of this
research provide an opportunity to predict the functional state of the driver under different road
conditions, as well as to adjust the routes of traffic of vehicles and the mode of work and rest of drivers.
