Introduction to CUBRC
3
Motivation
4
• This research represents work in progress
• MAP-21 requires a greater emphasis on developing performance measures to justify roadway safety improvements
• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, Infrastructure Based Technologies, and Active Traffic Management have the potential to greatly reduce the number and severity of crashes
• This project proposes an alternative highway safety performance measure through the monitoring and classification of near crash events
Collaborators
Methodology
5
• Near crash events are normally defined as the exceedance of accepted thresholds for various vehicle kinematics such as lateral/longitudinal acceleration/deceleration, forward or rear time to collision, and yaw rates
• Kinematics data from the SHRP2 Naturalistic Driving Study can be used as a surrogate of CV measures and as a way to identify new metrics and demonstrate their value
• Near Crash events can be compared to the number of fatal, serious, and property damage only crashes and rates

I - Most Severe CrashAny crash that includes an airbag deployment; any injury; a vehicle roll over; a high Delta V; or that requires vehicle towing.
II - Police-Reportable Crash Includes sufficient property damage that it is police reportable (minimum of ~$1500 worth of damage, as estimated from video).
III - Minor Crash Physical Contact with Another Object. Includes most road departures
IV - Low-Risk Tire StrikeTire strike only with little/no risk element

Next Steps
11
• Rectify crash numbers on InSight vs. SHRP2 S06 final report• Verify the exposure rates for SHRP2 fleet• Develop a mapping of kinematics to near crash & crash events
to provide a correlation coefficient and provide reliable metrics • Better define the relationship between near crashes and less
studied factors such as ABS and Traction Control activations • Expand analysis to other SHRP2 NDS test sites
Summary
12
• Data from SHRP2 NDS allows for the characterization of drivers while data from a CV environment could provide numerous more events for analysis
• In 2015 NHTSA will require that all new vehicles contain event data recorders to store vehicle kinematic data
• Near crash events can provide meaningful safety performance metrics and will be more widely available in the future
• The anticipated results of this project will provide transportation safety analysts with insights into the frequency of near crash events, pre-near crash contributing factors, and the types of evasive crash maneuvers
