A previous investigation of the effects of familiarity with the driving situation on driver's eye movements assessed differences in eye movements between novice and expert drivers when driving in familiar and unfamiliar situations.The findings indicated that familiarity with the driving situation had a greater influence on expert drivers than on novice drivers.We assessed the validity of those results using number of saccades and gaze position.We found that the mean number of saccades elicited in the unfamiliar driving situation was significantly greater in the expert group than in the novice group.Thus, we confirmed the effects of familiarity with the situation and driving experience on driver's eye movements.
