N2  - We investigated optimal swivel control on curves of winding roads as a function of driver's age and gender. In a field experiment using a test vehicle at the test track of the Denso Abashiri Test Center in Hokkaido, 36 subjects were surveyed on their preference for the swivel control system under driving situation. In the experiment, we set five swivel control systems varied from no swiveling system to predicting swivel system. The subjects rounded the test truck under a swivel control system and assessed that system subjectively. We applied an ordered logit model for estimating effect of driver's attributes and visual functions on assessments of the five swivel control systems. It was found that the swivel system to illuminate at three seconds ahead of the current position is selected as the best preferred system.<p />  <p>Language: ja</p>
