摘要: This article describes the Automated Highway System (AHS) program, which in the future will make highway driving efficient, safe, and predictable. Research on the new intelligent vehicle-highway system reveals that traffic congestion will be reduced, a collision-free highway system will be produced through enhanced safety, and driving will become more predictable and reliable. The article provides information about AHS technologies that make AHS possible, program progress to date, and future demonstrations of the system. AHS program officials are investigating human factors of the system as well. A preliminary handbook that addresses driver issues that relate to AHS design will be available in 1994 with a second edition available in 1996. A national AHS consortium of public and private sector representatives will guide the Department of Transportation in administering this program.
