NEW TRB SPECIAL REPORT: The Safety Promise and Challenge of Automotive Electronics: Insights from Unintended Acceleration
In March 2010, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration asked the National Research Council to review the agency’s investigations of unintended acceleration in automobiles and to recommend ways to strengthen the safety oversight of automotive electronics systems. The committee found that the systems offer many opportunities to make driving safer but also present new demands to ensure the safe performance of increasingly complex vehicle technologies.
