A driver monitoring system for a vehicle and method of operating the driver operating system. The method, in one implementation, involves receiving a plurality of glance aim points for a driver of the vehicle; inputting the plurality of glance aim points into a predictive probability of distraction model to obtain a predictive distraction distribution; determining whether one or more informative glance locations are present in the plurality of glance aim points; comparing the predictive distraction distribution to a predictive distraction distribution threshold when one or more informative glance locations are present in the plurality of glance aim points; and alerting the driver when the predictive distraction distribution satisfies or exceeds the predictive distraction distribution threshold.
