Slide 40 - Collision Avoidance Program Rear-End Collision Avoidance System - Alerts driver when a rear-end collision is imminent. This can occur because the vehicle ahead stops suddenly, or because the driver doesn’t recognize that a vehicle ahead is stopped, such as occurs when approaching a queue formed by congestion. These systems will consist of a sensor (such as a radar) that senses the distance and relative speed to vehicles ahead, a computer to process the sensor data and make decisions about the need for a warning to the driver, and a driver interface to present the warning to the driver. The driver interface might include a head-up display and/or an audible message such as a distinct tone or a spoken message. Example- Intelligent Cruise Control - Cruise control exists today, but you have to hit the brakes if you get too close to the vehicle in front of you. A precursor to ear-end collision avoidance systems will be an intelligent, or adaptive, cruise control system. This advanced system automatically adjusts vehicle speed when the vehicle ahead slows down or speeds up. The system also will reset to the original set speed when the path is clear. These systems will probably begin to be available to the buying public in the next 1 or 2 years. Road Departure Collision Avoidance System - Alerts driver when the vehicle is about to run off the roadway. The system will include the same three elements (sensors, processor, and driver interface) that were described for the rear-end collision avoidance system and will perform in a similar fashion. One mode of operation might be to mimic the sensation that drivers have today when they unintentionally drive onto the rumble strips that are being installed on the shoulders of many sections of interstate highways. These systems promise to be especially helpful for rural areas. Lane Change/Merge Collision Avoidance System - This system alerts the driver if it is not safe to change lanes because there is another vehicl
