abstract="The concept of Automated Mixed Traffic Transit (AMTT) systems, whereby driverless vehicles operate in mixed traffic on public thoroughfares, has been proposed as a means to meet selected transportation applications. Indeed, such systems have been under development for several years although, at present, none is in public service. A major concern of such operations is safety, both for the AMTT vehicles and their passengers and for the traffic (other vehicles and people) in which these vehicles will operate. AMTT systems and associated operations have safety considerations which are in part common to existing forms of public transit and in part peculiar to the AMTT concept. This paper discusses these with emphasis on the latter type.<p />",
