Driver drowsiness significantly impairs the ability to accurately judge safe braking distances and is estimated to contribute to 10%-20% of road accidents in Europe. Traditional driver-assistance systems lack adaptability to real-time physiological states such as drowsiness. This paper proposes a deep reinforcement learning-based autonomous braking system that integrates vehicle dynamics with driver physiological data. Drowsiness is detected from ECG signals using a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), selected through an extensive benchmark analysis of 2-minute windows with varying segmentation and overlap configurations. The inferred drowsiness state is incorporated into the observable state space of a Double-Dueling Deep Q-Network (DQN) agent, where driver impairment is modeled as an action delay. The system is implemented and evaluated in a high-fidelity CARLA simulation environment. Experimental results show that the proposed agent achieves a 99.99% success rate in avoiding collisions under both drowsy and non-drowsy conditions. These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of physiology-aware control strategies for enhancing adaptive and intelligent driving safety systems.
