contents Drivers' role changes with increasing automation from the primary driver to a system supervisor. This study investigates how supervising an SAE L2 and L3 automated vehicle (AV) affects drivers' mental workload and sleepiness compared to manual driving. Using an AV prototype on a test track, the oscillatory brain activity of 23 adult participants was recorded during L2, L3, and manual driving. Results showed decreased mental workload and increased sleepiness in L3 drives compared to L2 and manual drives, indicated by self-report scales and changes in the frontal alpha and theta power spectral density. These findings suggest that fatigue and mental underload are significant issues in L3 driving and should be considered when designing future AV interfaces.
