Abstract:The purpose of this working paper is to present estimates of potential safety benefits resulting from full implementation of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) in the United States. These estimates were derived by integrating results from a number of different sources. In this paper, the safety benefits metrics used are reductions in fatal crashes and injury crashes. The results presented here are not meant to be the final word on quantitative safety benefits, but only an estimate of what could possibly be achieved in the long run based on available evidence. As more empirical evidence on the safety benefits of ITS services and technologies becomes available over time, the results presented here can be revisited to refine these estimates.
