Abstract:

This report presents the methodology and results of the independent evaluation of retrofit safety packages installed on transit vehicles in the

Safety Pilot Model Deployment—part of the United States Department of Transportation’s Intelligent Transportation Systems research

program. The Model Deployment included approximately 2,800 vehicles, equipped with designated short-range-communication-based

vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure technology in a real-world driving environment. The goals of the independent evaluation were

to assess system performance, safety impact, and driver acceptance of the vehicle-to-vehicle safety applications based on the naturalistic

driving of 75 drivers who drove the equipped transit buses during the Model Deployment. The results of the analysis suggest that the TRP

safety applications have the potential to improve driver behavior and increase driver safety, but improvements in accuracy are needed.

Results from the Model Deployment will help shape future research direction.
