The system adds frontal collision mitigation, stationary vehicle braking, lane departure warning, and a dash integrated heads-up display.
Investigators identified two primary areas that, if addressed, would have the biggest effect on reducing the number of vehicle-bicycle collisions.
The pedestrian’s impairment at the time of the crash, coupled with crossing outside a crosswalk, contributed to the crash.
Investigators identified an array of other factors in reducing crash risks, including use of adaptive headlights and limiting speeds on roads where motor vehicles share the roadway
Using Lidar technology, PASS is designed to help professionally-trained operators avoid or reduce the severity of a collision.
Designed to ensure the driver always maintains full control over the vehicle by using digital track data and visual odometry.
The project team is responsible for evaluation of cost-effectiveness and practicality of selected collision-mitigation solutions.
Data collected by Pierce Transit on the efficacy of the new equipment will be used to determine whether the technology should be used nationwide, by transit agencies and school districts.
Will provide an in-depth look into the driving environment of large transit buses.
I have had it with the never-ending meeting of the minds on the predominant causes of left-turn bus-pedestrian collisions. This whole issue is getting obscured with presentations that slice and dice every possible cause of these incidents into a collection of symbols, numbers and formulas. Please stop.
