REQUIREMENTS AND THEIR ESSENCE FOR THE DRIVING PROFESSION
Main Article Content
Abstract
The safety and effectiveness of vehicle operation are heavily influenced by the psychophysiological characteristics and professional readiness of drivers, which require precise attention, adaptability, and the ability to function under stress.
Driving entails constant neuropsychological stress due to factors such as information uncertainty, poor visibility, high speeds, and responsibility for passenger safety. These demands highlight the need for rigorous psychophysiological and professional criteria in selecting and training drivers.
Although general requirements for driver fitness are widely acknowledged, there is insufficient integration of psychophysiological selection principles into professional driver training and evaluation systems, especially in contexts with high safety demands.
This study aims to identify and analyze the core psychophysiological and professional requirements for the driving profession, and to evaluate their significance for traffic safety and driver performance.
The analysis establishes that safe vehicle operation depends on numerous cognitive and emotional factors, including attention stability, decision-making under stress, reaction speed, and environmental awareness. The study outlines seven principles for psychophysiological selection, emphasizing adaptability, comprehensive assessment, and task-specific evaluation.
The paper offers a structured framework for professional psychophysiological selection, highlighting the interplay between neuropsychological stressors and professional competencies in driving.
These findings provide a basis for improving driver training programs, developing targeted selection procedures, and enhancing road safety through better alignment of psychological capacities with professional driving demands.
