SP - 836 EP - 842 VL - 100 IS - 10 N2 - Daytime running light (DRL) has been in use for many decades in various countries world-wide. Experience is present from the Scandinavian countries, from Canada and the United States. DRL reduces traffic accidents tremendously and encompasses all participants in road traffic, especially the non-motorized pedestrians and cyclists. Physiological-optical considerations, the technical realisation of DRL and accident statistics will be discussed. LA - SN - 0941-293X UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00347-002-0755-1 ID - ref1 ER -
