This report presents results from the independent evaluation of a
field operational test using a fleet of heavy trucks outfitted with
a prototype integrated crash warning system. This effort was
conducted as part of the U.S. DOT's Integrated Vehicle-Based Safety
Systems (IVBSS) program. The system tested included rear-end,
lane-change/merge, and lane departure crash warning functions. The
goals of the evaluation were to assess safety impact and driver
acceptance, and to characterize the prototype system's warning
capabilities. Eighteen volunteer drivers from a commercial fleet
operated the 10 equipped heavy trucks, accumulating 600,000 miles
over a 10-month period. The test period consisted of 2 months of
baseline driving, when the system was disabled, and an 8-month
treatment period, when the system was enabled and warnings were
presented to the drivers. Comparisons were made between baseline
driving and the treatment period to determine the effect of system
use on driver behavior and performance.
