Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent

ISO 17287:2003(E)
0 Introduction
0.1 General
This International Standard arises from the increasing availability of transport information and control systems
(TICS) to support the driver in the primary driving tasks and in other secondary tasks. Drivers require ease of
use and high functionality and do not expect this to lead to unsafe driving situations (in use as intended by the
manufacturer, or during malfunction).
0.2 Assessment of suitability of TICS
The suitability of TICS is assessed on the basis of compatibility with the primary driving task and is concerned
with those aspects of usability which relate most closely to the driver’s performance. In particular, suitability
focuses on
 interference (with the driving task),
 controllability,
 efficiency, and
 ease of use while learning about the system.
The first three aspects (which are not necessarily mutually exclusive) relate closely to the primary driving task.
The fourth is also important, as some features of TICS may be used infrequently, or by drivers who are initially
unfamiliar with the systems. Other aspects of usability, such as satisfaction, are less important in assessing
the suitability of TICS for use while driving as they are more specific to individual manufacturers and their
product profiles, and do not relate so closely to the driver’s performance in undertaking the primary driving
task.
The importance of the four identified components in an overall assessment of suitability will vary between
TICS.
Suitability is a property of TICS and not of their components. It is assessed on the basis of the interaction
between the driver and the TICS within the driving environment, and suitability needs to take into account
driver’s behavioural adaptation induced by the TICS.
This International Standard concerns the process of assessment of a specific TICS product and is intended to
ensure that its suitability is considered, assessed and documented as part of the design and development
process. It does not attempt to prescribe all the actions that should be taken to assess or ensure suitability.
The scope and detail of an assessment is a matter for users of this document. Informative annexes provide
examples of aspects of the suitability assessment process.
0.3 Application
This International Standard is intended to assist the assessment of the suitability of TICS in advance of
widespread system deployment. It can be used when components from different suppliers are proposed or
assembled for use in the in-vehicle environment. The trend of integration of in-vehicle systems is likely to
increase the need to consider the impact of multiple and integrated in-vehicle systems and this document
could also be applicable to non-TICS functions.

SIST EN ISO 17287:2003
ISO 17287:2003(E)
This International Standard is intended for use by manufacturers or by others concerned with assessing the
suitability of TICS for use while driving. It is assumed that the users will have some knowledge of automotive
human factors.
This International Standard can be used by manufacturers as part of their own quality processes. The design
and implementation of procedures to ensure that TICS suitability is assessed and documented will be
influenced by the varying needs of an organization, its objectives, the products and services supplied and
existing processes and practices employed.
It is not the purpose of this International Standard to enforce uniformity of TICS. It is independent of the type
of vehicle, complexity of TICS, level of integration within a vehicle or the specific TICS application or
implementation. It is applicable to all TICS, including, for example, those intended for use by drivers with
special needs.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17287:2003(E)

Road vehicles — Ergonomic aspects of transport information
and control systems — Procedure for assessing suitability for
use while driving
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a procedure for assessing whether specific TICS (transport information
and control systems), or a combination of TICS with other in-vehicle systems, are suitable for use by drivers
while driving. It addresses
 user-oriented TICS description and context of use,
 TICS task description and analysis,
 the assessment process, and
 documentation.
The TICS description and context of use includes consideration of improper use, reasonably foreseeable
misuse and TICS failure. The TICS description, analysis and assessment include a process for identifying and
addressing suitability issues.
This International Standard does not recommend specific variables for assessing suitability nor does it define
criteria for establishing the suitability of use of a TICS table while driving.

SIST EN ISO 17287:2003
ISO 17287:2003(E)
4.2.3 Identification
Table 2 gives those elements that should be included in the identification of the TICS.
Table 2 — TICS identification
Aspect of description Explanation
Product name and version A one line description for identification purposes.
Manufacturer The name, address and contact points.
Subsystems A brief description of the subsystems to an appropriate level. HMI (human–machine
interface) components should receive greatest attention.
Build status A brief description of the state of development of the TICS for reference purposes.
Documentation A list of technical and user documentation included within the suitability assessment.
4.2.4 Context and restrictions for intended use
The context and restrictions can be regarded as “envelope of use”. Restrictions or limitations may be
particularly important for certain TICS functions. In these cases, the restrictions and limitations should be
given particular emphasis. A consideration of the driver’s needs, including his or her training needs, could be
helpful. Table 3 presents aspects of the context that should be considered.
Table 3 — Context and restrictions for intended TICS use
Aspect of description Explanation
Vehicle A description of the TICS requirements of a vehicle (e.g. physical devices, sensor signals
or other information). Also, any exclusions or restrictions on the vehicle within which the
TICS is intended to be used.
Driver If any restrictions or special driver skill requirements are defined by the manufacturer,
these should determine the intended user group considered within assessments.
Road A definition of the road context in which the TICS is, and is not, intended to be operated.
This includes the road category and physical requirements of road markings, gradients,
curvatures, widths, etc.
Traffic A description of the traffic context within which the TICS is, and is not, intended to be
operated (e.g. traffic mix and density).
Other environmental Additional requirements or restrictions could include weather and lighting specifications.
Infrastructure A general description of any infrastructure or information which is external to the vehicle
and required for the intended TICS operation.
4.2.5 Improper use and misuse
4.2.5.1 TICS functions that are not intended to be used while driving shall be identified. According to the
definition of intended use, this is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the TICS. The result should be a
clear distinction between functions intended to be used while driving and those not intended for use while
driving.
4.2.5.2 Steps taken to prevent the use of functions not intended to be used while driving shall be
described. Such improper use occurs when a function not intended to be used while driving is used by the
driver. As an example, suppose a mobile phone is not intended to be used without a hands-free car-adapter
kit. Steps taken to prevent the use of functions could include physical lock-outs or descriptions in the operating
manuals of the intended scope of TICS use and suitable warnings.
4.2.5.3 Steps taken to prevent reasonably foreseeable misuse shall be described. Misuse occurs when a
function intended to be used while driving is used by the driver in a way or manner not intended by the
manufacturer and which may lead to adverse consequences. Examples are using an ACC system as a

ISO 17287:2003(E)
collision warning system and using a large-scale map as a driving aid in fog. Steps taken to prevent
reasonably foreseeable misuse could include advice and warnings in the operating manual or warning
reminders placed inside the vehicle.
4.2.6 Failures
TICS failures should be identified. The way in which TICS failures will be apparent to the driver shall be
described. The consequences of failures on TICS operation should be considered. More detailed descriptions
may also be undertaken using techniques such as failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA).
