Safety Advisory Applications for Connected Traveler – Safe Trip 21 in California
This paper describes recent work that was conducted in preparation for an initial field evaluation study plan for safety applications within the scope of Safe Trip-21 California Connected Traveler. It explains the rational of target scenarios and the related applications that explore the hypothesis that SafeTrip-21 can provide safety services of value to the connected traveler. A few case studies are used to illustrate the driver-assistance functions that can be provided under the framework of Safe-Trip 21 Program. These applications, when deployed with timely alerts to drivers, can increase driver awareness of the driving environment on the road ahead and minimize hazardous situations that may potentially lead to collisions.
