NHTSA Agency Decision
§2013 NHTSA agency decision on V2V and V2I safety communications systems.  Options include:
□Future regulatory action
□Inclusion in the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP)
□Further research and development
§Similar milestone in 2014 for a decision regarding V2V and V2I safety technology on heavy vehicles
§Information to support the decision will come from many sources, including the Safety Pilot Model Deployment
A regulatory approach would require manufacturers to include equipment in new cars by a future date

Inclusion in NCAP would enable manufacturers to earn higher government safety ratings for vehicles that support the V2V and V2I safety applications.
