The article provides an overview of risk factors that are caused by the working conditions of car drivers and provides an example of a methodology for assessing visual loads that were measured using a digital video recorder. To assess real visual loads on a car driver, a method for simultaneous recording of information of visual load and heart rate has been developed and tested. The proposed method made it possible to establish a correlation between the dynamics of the flow of visual traffic information and the response of the driver’s body in the form of response changes in the pulse. The effectiveness of the method was shown and the correlation of video fragments and pulsograms with R = 0.4 was established. The results of the work are applicable to assess the working conditions of car drivers, when visual stress is a leading factor in working conditions, in order to prevent fatigue and road traffic accidents.
