• Abstract:
  This report provides technical input for consideration in developing the New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) Safe Fleet Transition Plan (SFTP), which will formalize a set of best-practice vehicle safety technologies for all City vehicles to prevent and mitigate crashes, in direct support of Vision Zero. The U.S. Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe) has partnered with DCAS to broadly research these areas and identify implementation opportunities on the City Fleet. Most of the safety technologies identified in this report are already implemented within certain City agencies or in other U.S. fleets.
