This report describes pre-crash scenarios that might be addressed
by vehicle-to-vehicle communications. The focus is on crashes
involving at least 1 light vehicle with a gross vehicle weight
rating of 10,000 pounds or less. The 2004-2008 General Estimates
System crash databases were used to quantify the societal cost and
describe the driving environment, driver characteristics, and crash
contributing factors. The National Motor Vehicle Crash Causation
Survey was queried to statistically portray crash causal factors.
Data from Event Data Recorders drawn from model year 2000-2007
vehicles were analyzed to describe the kinematics of pre-crash
scenarios in terms of travel speed, brake application, and
deceleration level over a period of five seconds before the crash.
Most crashes occurred on straight roads, dry surfaces, in clear
weather, and during daylight hours.
