Dr. Francesco Biondi is a Human Factors specialist and expert witness with extensive experience analyzing how attention, perception, cognitive workload, and decision‑making influence driver behavior and accident outcomes. His work spans distracted driving, human‑machine interaction, driver monitoring, and the behavioral mechanisms that contribute to crashes in both manually driven and partially automated vehicles. A core area of Dr. Biondi’s research focuses on driver distraction and over‑reliance on partially automated driving systems, including Tesla Autopilot and other Level 2 systems. His studies investigate how automation affects driver attention, situational awareness, hazard detection, trust, misuse, and fallback performance. He frequently evaluates cases where questions arise about automation complacency, driver disengagement, system alerts, and human‑factors expectations in automation‑related crashes. Dr. Biondi has served as an expert witness in both Canada and the United ...
