Abstract

This paper provides a status update on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) program to facilitate development and early deployment of cost-effective, user-friendly collision avoidance systems. The program includes an expanding crash avoidance knowledge base, development of a vital set of research tools, identification of crash avoidance opportunities, examination of key human factors and system design issues, and development of performance specifications for crash avoidance products and systems. The status of each element of the program is discussed.
