Connected and Automated Vehicle Based Intersection Maneuver Assist Systems (CAVIMAS) and Their Impact on Driver Behavior, Acceptance, and Safety

Forty percent of the estimated 5.8 million crashes in the US in 2008 were intersection-related, with most of these having driver-related reasons attributed as the critical reasons for the crashes. Most of these human-related reasons have the potential to be mitigated by leveraging thoughtful deployments of vehicle-to infrastructure (V2I) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) safety management solutions in tandem with human factors-based interventions relating to the content and presentation of such solutions. This project proposes the design of a conceptual system - Connected and Automated Vehicle based Intersection Maneuver Assist Systems (CAVIMAS) - aimed at assisting drivers with intersection maneuvers by leveraging connected infrastructure and providing real-time guidance and warnings, and potentially even active vehicle controls. This will be undertaken in an advanced driving simulation environment, and the concept system will be evaluated via a user study to investigate drivers’ interactions with such systems, including their perceptions, acceptance, and trust related behaviors.
