Working characteristics of the human body can be expressed by the pattern of mental activity because physical work is generally followed by conscious activity. When the mental work is classified as intermittent work and enduring mental work, driving should be classified as the latter. When driving, the central nervous system must continuously manage various types of stimuli (or information) arriving from circumstances of the roads. It was expected that these conditions would cause a difference in mental activity and hence EEG pattern between normal motorists and motorists who are frequently involved in traffic accidents. The state of appearance of alpha waves and the frequency of the alpha waves were comparatively investigated.
