摘要: This article discusses the serious winter driving hazard of road markings and boundaries being obscured by heavy snow and the increase in cross-lane and run-off-the-road crashes caused by this hazard. The focus is on efforts by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) to deal with this problem by conducting a Specialty Vehicle Field Operations Test to tap intelligent vehicle technology to aid snowplow operators to "see" the roadway obscured by deep snow/white-out conditions and thereby improve safety during plowing operations. Attention is also paid to the development of an Advanced Snowplow Driver Assistance System in California and Arizona that uses intelligent vehicle systems and advanced vehicle control and safety systems.
