Research Abstract |
As for rear-end collision warning systems how to determine alarm timing for decreases in collision risk was developed based on experimental studies. How to determine alarm timing was proposed based on usual time headways(THW) for individual drivers when following a lead vehicle. It was shown that it was possible to decrease collision risk by using different alarm trigger logics when driver is distracted in addition to THW is relatively long compared to relatively short THW.
