The role of intelligent infrastructure in the development of road safety and autonomous vehicles
Abstract
Intelligent infrastructure supports the traffic and testing of self-driving vehicles, as well as regulatory activity and the possibility to change traffic rules, providing an excellent location to carry out road tests of ADAS systems. There are a number of benefits to the gradual integration of self-driving vehicles into transport. Most importantly, the development of appropriate
regulations and the inclusion of autonomous vehicles in regulated traffic can significantly increase road safety, significantly reduce the number and severity of accidents involving personal injuries and result in reduced congestion.
