Vehicle dynamic safety warning system based on data fusion is researched and designed in this paper. Dynamic information of vehicle, road and environment can be collected in real time. By analyzing and processing these data, active safety warning information is achieved for individual vehicle on different work condition. Security characteristic parameter, road conditions and traffic meteorologi...

The last decade has seen a large amount of road safety effort put into investigating the socalled ‘older driver problem’. As a consequence, our knowledge of older drivers and their functional performance, their driving and crash patterns and their crash risk, has increased substantially. However the research has given little direct attention to the special challenges that older drivers pose to ...

This paper presents Direction based Hazard Routing Protocol (DHRP) for disseminating information about fixed road hazards such as road blocks, tree fall, boulders on road, snow pile up, landslide, road maintenance work and other obstacles to the vehicles approaching the hazardous location. The proposed work focuses on dissemination of hazard messages on highways with sparse traffic. The vehicle...

skid resistance and road condition are common indices of road safety; therefore providing adequate skidding resistance will reduce the incidence of road accidents. the surface macrotexture has a large effect on the characteristics of road surface skidding, which is the focus of this research. during the study, the mean texture depth of the road surface was measured, in order to determine the co...

The analysis of the existing condition of Serbian road network from the safety aspect, aiming at proving necessity for road network reconstruction as the basic precondition for reducing great number of traffic accidents is prepared in this paper.
