contents The increasing number of accidents caused by alcohol-impaired driving has prompted the development of integrated safety systems in vehicles to monitor driver behavior and prevent crashes. This paper explores how drivers perceive these systems, focusing on their comfort, trust, privacy concerns, and willingness to adopt the technology. Through a survey of 115 U.S. participants, the study reveals a preference for non-intrusive systems, such as those monitoring eye movements, over more restrictive technologies like alcohol detection devices. Privacy emerged as a major concern, with many participants preferring local data processing and anonymity. Trust in these systems was crucial for acceptance, as drivers are more likely to adapt their behavior when they believe the system is accurate and reliable. To encourage adoption, it is important to address concerns about privacy and balance the benefits of safety with personal freedom. By improving transparency, ensuring reliability, and increasing public awareness, these systems could play a significant role in reducing road accidents and improving safety.
