PSA PEUGEOT CITROEN EXPERIMENTAL SAFETY SUBSYSTEMS IN VSR (VEHICLE AND SAFETY ON ROAD)

The Experimental Safety SubSystems (ESSS) proposed by PSA Peugeot Citroen in the Vehicle and Safety on Road - VSR - program are based on the information coming from accidentological activities; they are the result of synthesis studies performed in the frame of accident avoidance, primary safety and occupant protection: (1) ESSS 1 are devoted to electronics and intelligent vehicle developments for crash avoidance; (2) ESSS 2 present new methods for dynamic behavior improvement in order to prevent the driver from being in a critical driving condition; and (3) ESSS 3 is given up to enhanced passive safety conditions aimed at increased occupant protection in case of accident.
