Here and now – 120 years later  WORLDWIDE: 1.24 million deaths and 15 million serious injuries million serious injuries annually (Global Road Safety Partnership) per year  2nd leading cause of death for young men death for young men worldwide (behind HIV/AIDS)  EUROPE: 30,000 fatalities per year Road deaths per 100.000 population (WHO, 2013)

So…

 What can we do to reduce fatalities?

1 Passive Safety 1. Passive Safety

 Everything that helps minimize the effects of accidents (airbag, belt, construction of the vehicle etc.)

2. Active Safety

 Everything that helps to aviod accidents (ABS, ESP, Collision Avoidance, etc.)

 New technology: information, assistance, automation

IVIS & ADAS

IVIS = Intelligent Driver Information System

 inform and entertain the user while driving

 air condition control  radio control  Navigation  …

ADAS = Advanced Driver Assistance System

 explicitly supports the driver with their driving task  lane control  distance control  night vision  Collision avoidance  …

Overview: ADAS today

Level System Stabilizing Anti-lock braking system Stabilizing Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Manouvers Adaptive Cruise Control ACC Stop-and-Go Parking assistance

In Europe The benefit of ADAS

 ESP: From 1.11.2014 mandatory for all new cars: 15- 20 % decrease of fatalities (eSafety database)  Collision avoidance: Avoidance of 12% of very serious  Collision avoidance: Avoidance of 12% of very serious accidents (GDV)  Collision avoidance on trucks: Avoidance of 40% of very serious accidents

But, there are limits…

 Loose of skill and competence  Overreliance Overreliance  From control to monitoring including reduced situation awareness  Loose of activation and vigilance because of monoticity  Attending to other tasks because of additional ressources  Misuse  Only for the rich…  …

Limits of IVIS and ADAS

 Society

 T i i d ti li  Training, education, licence  Data protection  responsibility

 Manufacturers

 reliability  ADAS and IVIS are considered as comfort issues  resposibility

 Drivers:

 Workload and distraction  Vigilance (out-of-the-loop)  Degrees of freedom...

Pros and cons

 Alcolocks will decrease „drink and drive“  Might be a serious option to avoid repeat offense  Driving without driver license in a period of  Driving without driver license in a period of rehabilitation

But:

 Drinking to the limit  C b i d  Can be misused  Low acceptance rate from „target groups“

8

To sum up…

 ADAS/IVIS and also Alcolocks have the potential to increase safety  More information better assistance higher  More information, better assistance, higher automation will not solve all the problems  The driving task will change and new problems will arise
