摘要: Advanced electronic safety systems have been increasingly deployed on passenger and commercial vehicles. Most recently, radar-based systems have been introduced for detecting and warning of impending collision. These warning systems are particularly significant for large trucks and tractor-trailers due to the severity and occurrence of rear-end collisions resulting in death and serious injury. Fleet operators are presently able to remotely monitor and record hazardous conditions for evaluating driver skills and assessing the safety and reliability of highway routes. However, the criteria for logging hazardous conditions from the available data and the basis for subsequent corrective actions are not well understood. This research seeks to develop a safety-management system through remote monitoring of large truck operating conditions, thereby providing an environment to more effectively use real-time fleet operating data to improve highway safety and driver training. / NOTE: Final rept. for 16 Aug 04-15 Aug 06. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Department of Transportation, Washington, DC.
