| 摘要： | This paper summarizes some of the results of a 3-year project that was undertaken by the Research and Special Programs Administrations Volpe National Transportation Systems Center to identify crash causal factors and applicable Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) countermeasure concepts, model crash scenarios and avoidance maneuvers, provide preliminary estimates of countermeasure effectiveness when appropriate, and identify research and data needs. Eight target crash types were examined: (1) rear-end, (2) backing, (3) lane change and merge, (4) single vehicle roadway departure, (5) opposite direction, (6) signalized intersection, straight crossing path, (7) unsignalized intersection, straight crossing path, and (8) left turn across path crashes.This paper identifies target crash subtypes and causal factors that were determined by a case-by-case examination of a sample of crashes drawn from two National Highway Traffic Safety Administrations accident data bases; defines and categorizes ITS countermeasure system concepts; and includes a sample of kinematic models representing crash avoidance actions. |
