New proposal on blind spot information systems testing without vehicle turning for discussion.

Consolidated draft proposal for a blind spot information systems regulation as developed under the VRU Proxi informal group, based on GRSG/2017/11.

Working draft based on the proposal in document GRSG/2017/11 with marked revisions and comments.

Discussion of VRU safety data and requirements for blind spot information systems.

Final report on a Washington State Transit Insurance Pool (WSTIP) pilot program to assess the Rosco/Mobileye Shield+ system collision avoidance warning system (CAWS) specifically designed for transit buses. This project involved field testing and evaluation of the CAWS in revenue service over a three-month period. The system provides alerts and warnings to the bus driver for the following conditions that could lead to a collision:

1. changing lanes without activating a turn signal (lane departure warning was disabled for this pilot),
2. exceeding posted speed limit,
3. monitoring headway with the vehicle leading the bus,
4. forward vehicle collision warning, and
5. pedestrian or cyclist collision warning in front of, or alongside the bus.
