The personal, social, and economic costs of motor vehicle crashes include pain and suffering, direct costs sustained by injured persons and their insurers, and, for many crash victims, a lower standard of living or quality of life. Ongoing and recently completed research and development indicate that collision avoidance systems offer the potential for significantly reducing motor vehicle crashes. Recognizing that these and other driver assistance systems potentially offer major benefits, the U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) is embarking on a new program called the Intelligent Vehicle Initiative (IVI). The U.S. DOT intends to jointly define the program plan and conduct the IVI in cooperation with the motor vehicle, trucking, and bus industries, State and local governments, and other stakeholders to facilitate the research, development, testing, evaluation, and deployment of safety- and mobility-enhancing systems.
