M ETROPOLITAN ITS — Secretary Pena, 1996 — Secretary Slater, 1997 — USDOT Performance Plan, 2000 Goal: Deploy Integrated ITS Infrastructure in 75 of the Nation’s largest metropolitan areas within the next decade. The purpose is to save time and lives and improve the quality of life for all Americans.

I NTELLIGENT V EHICLE I NITIATIVE Four Platforms: –Light vehicles –Transit vehicles –Commercial vehicles –Specialty vehicles Eight Problem Areas: –Rear-end –Lane change/merge –Road departure –Intersection –Vision enhancement –Vehicle stability –Driver condition –Safety impacts of other services

ITS S AVES L IVES Crash warning systems on most American cars could: Prevent 17% of all crashes! Prevented Crashes 759, ,000 39,000 Reduction per System Type 49% 25% 20% System Type Rear-End Roadway Departure Lane Change/Merge

CURRENT RESEARCH —Generation 0 (2003) — Operational Tests –Freightliner –Volvo –Mack –Minnesota DOT —Generation 1 (2008) — Preparing for Field Tests –Rear End –Road Departure –Transit Problem Area –Drowsy Driver —Generation 2 (2013) — Research Areas –Infrastructure cooperation –Communications (Vehicle to Infrastructure & Vehicle to Vehicle) –Road condition sensing

CONCLUSIONS ITS Is Real — The Public Expects It. Federal Program Moving from R&D to Deployment Focus. Funding for ITS Implementation Must Come From Federal-Aid Programs. Lots of Tools Available to Support ITS Deployment. FHWA has Opportunity to Lead.
