Crash Areas – Identification for Research
•Emphasis based on crash frequency and
societal costs.
•Identified crash areas that cannot be
addressed by a Vehicle to Vehicle or an
Autonomous Vehicle Solution alone.
oIntersection Related Crashes: Roadside Equipment (RSE)
provide data such as Signal Phase & Timing to
enable applications on the vehicle platform that
help prevent intersection crashes.
oSpeed Related Crashes: RSE provide data such as
roadway geometry and dynamic speed limit information
to the vehicle application platform
to prevent lane departure crashes.
oVulnerable Road Users: Covers Broad range of crash types such as work zones, pedestrians, and Highway Rail Intersections (HRI) crashes. RSE provides all data to enable the application on the vehicle.
