SARI : How to inform drivers and road managers more effectively about high level risk of vehicle loss of control
Résumé
The SARI project aims to bring about a significant reduction in the number of accidents by providing drivers with better information about the driving difficulties they will have to confront. The project essentially targets secondary roads. The objective is to relate a level of risk of loss of control to the characteristics of the road in order to identify information that helps drivers move from normal attention to increased attention and modify their behaviour. The difficulties taken in account by the project are physical discontinuities in the road; deterioration caused by wind and rain; discontinuities in road visibility and legibility.
