VRU Accidents: Statistics & Observations

Statistics (CARE, 2010)




Statistics (Road Safety Annual Report 2014, IRTAD)



Pedestrian fatalities accounted for 20% of the total road fatalities in 2008. The
proportion is higher for children and the elderly than for other age groups.
35% of children killed in European roads in 2008 were pedestrians.
Elderly account for 40% of the total road fatalities in EU-23.
Less success in saving lives among vulnerable road users than amongst car
occupants . Reductions in deaths of pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists have
levelled-off and some increases have been recorded since 2009/10.
Close to 40% of all pedestrians killed belong to the age group 65+.
In-depth observations (VRUITS, 2013)


In the majority of cases, accidents tend to occur in urban areas with lower speed
limits (50km/h), with a passenger car being the most frequent collision partner.
Some important parameters could not be determined. These include vehicle
characteristics, vehicle speed pre-collision and pedestrian actions prior to collision.

Augmented Reality in Automotive: Trends
(Source: BOSCH)

There is clearly a strong trend that the consumer expects AR based
HMI in the Automotive cockpits.

AR systems in Automotive cockpits calls for advanced knowledge in
optics, data fusion, ability to offer real time content and offering the
right user experience.

AR will be seen/used in the short term in Head-up displays,
Instrument cluster and head-units.

Users find the sensible augmentation of information useful and less
distracting and consider AR based HMI as modern and innovative.

What can ITS training improve?

Increase road users knowledge, improve behaviour and
enhance perception of the road environment.

Understand in-vehicle and infrastructure-based ITS and
road automation, their benefits and their limitations.

Increase road user awareness, safety and comfort.

Provide knowledge on practical use, improving handling of
effects while using.

Minimise safety risks due to misuse and/or lack of
knowledge on technology functionality.

Enhance safety and efficient mobility, as well as promote
eco-friendly road transport.

TRANSPORT SAFETY

DG transport – Accidents impacts

Loss of human life: Over 200 people have died in Europe as result of
tunnel fires (successive effect of collisions) in the last decade (16 fire
accidents occurred in road tunnels in Europe from 1986 until 2006),
while 3% of the accidents in bridges are fatal (vs. 2% in total accidents).

Economic damage: the Gotthard tunnel accident cost was estimated
to be 12 million Euros, only in terms of repair and insured losses for
vehicles

Cost and time inefficiency: a single crash may close the
infrastructure for many hours, creating long queues and delays, with
vast financial cost induced for the whole business chain
June 5, 2014
European Conference on HCD for ITS
23
DG transport – Beyond accidents







Environmental damage due to traffic pollution in queues, noise pollution
and wasted energy (fuel) during queuing.
As a result of accidents, traffic jams but also road works and other
unexpected events but also due to the different national regulations and
individual infrastructure policies (i.e. DG vehicles are not allowed in
Gotthard tunnel), truck drivers are often forced to follow secondary
roads and alternative routes.
The actual accident risk and impact when using secondary roads or
other alternative ways is not calculated.
No particular guidance on the safest alternative when drivers need to reroute.
The business chain is not notified about routes and incidents; so, unable to
react when needed
Big delays in infrastructures – no passage priority (creating more delays…)
No automatic check of vehicles, cargo and driver (more delays, frequently
reason for non-passage)

Technological Responses to Priorities
Routing: use of a multiparametric decision support system to obtain optimum
routes (also in case of re-routing)
 Weighted Criteria: Safety (Individual/Societal), Security, Cost, Environmental
Damage
 Taking into account local rules & restrictions, traffic and environmental data,
vehicle and cargo status
 Monitoring: use of advanced telematics to monitor dangerous goods
movements
 Logistics Chain Notification: notify all involved actors of the Logistics Chain
what they should be aware of in case of an incident – fast reaction and
guidance
 Enforcement/emergency through telematic solution
 Automatic (pre-trip) Passage Priority to reduce delays (critical also for
Vulnerable Goods transport)

Integration and Coordination of ERA in
Transport

Submitted and promoted by HUMANIST President through the
European Transport Research Alliance (ETRA).

Proposed as a topic under Area 9 for the 2016-17 Transport
Workprogramme.

Scope: A forum for communication, collaboration, relationshipbuilding should develop multi-stakeholder interactions and produce an
action plan for innovative solution/options for transport and mobility to
advance the agenda of the transport sector and society at large. The
work should be inclusive of the state of the art of ideas, trials and
business endeavours on new mobility concepts (VERA-T).
