Abstract
A method for detecting inattentive vehicle operation includes using a camera monitor system (CMS) controller to identify how centered a vehicle containing the CMS controller is within a first lane line and a second lane line. The determination is done by analyzing at least one image generated by the CMS, and identifying an inattentive driving event has occurred in response to the vehicle centering deviating from a lane center according to a predefined characteristic.
