Use Of NASS Data For Evaluation Of AVCS Devices

Abstract: 

This report examines the applicability of the 1986 National Accident Sampling System (NASS) in providing sufficient information about a traffic accident to determine if an advanced vehicle control system (AVCS) could have had an impact in preventing that accident. The author states that, in general, NASS raw data are useful for evaluation of AVCS whenever a driver' s choices are limited to keeping a straight course at an appropriate speed
