In depth accident analysis
• German In-Depth Accident Study • Database of accident research
of German insurers (UDV) Records include sketches, photos, aerial images, reconstruction Purpose: gain information about • Road infrastructure • Obstructions • Velocities • Trajectories • Impact points

In depth accident analysis - results
• Daytime about 90 % • 90 % dry weather • Truck drivers sight O.K.;
obstruction in only 9 % • Only 22 % of the cases after previous
halt of the truck • In 90 % of the cases truck did not brake • In 90 % of the cases bicycle moved • Impact point at frontal part of the
truck (up to 6 m towards the rear, see Figure) • 90 % of fatalities with trucks above 7.5 t • Traffic lights do not play any role

60-80% (UDB / DEKRA)

Speeds:
• Bicycle and truck did not change their speeds during the accident in about two thirds of all cases
• Truck speeds are below 30 km/h in more than 90% of all cases • Bicycle speeds are below 20 km/h in more than 80% of all

Preconsiderations for Requirements • Due to missing experience no emergency braking • Warning (high intensity) only if accident is imminent in order to
avoid annoyance (alert will be disabled) • Since driver reaction time has to be taken into account warning will
be too late in most of the cases and thus useless Ø Informational assistance (early but not annoying)
![Page 8: Draft Regulation on Driver Assist Systems to Avoid Blind ......Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen Draft Regulation on Driver Assist Systems to Avoid Blind Spot Accidents Development](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060714/607a5fe0818c452e036c2212/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Difference between Warning and Information • Warning
– High intensity – If issued right, good
effects in steering driver‘s attention
– High annoyance if issued too often à risk of deactivation
• Information – Low intensity – Low annoyance if issued
too often à low risk of deactivation
– Lesser effect in steering driver‘s attention

Scenario characteristics (from accidentology) § vTruck: 10 to 20 km/h § vCycle: 10 to 20 km/h § Lateral separation: A = 1.5 to 4.5 m § Truck turning radius: R = 5, 10, 25 m § Maximum lateral acceleration: ay < 3 m/s² § Impact location: L = 0 to 6 m Assumed driver performance (conservative) § reaction time after driver information: 1,4 s § Braking performance of driver: 6 m/s²

Pass/Fail Criteria (1) – Impact on HGV Front
• Prevent HGV from crossing bicycle path
• Assistance System Information shall be early enough for driver to react
• Last Point of Information (LPI) reflects stopping distance
• Stopping distance results from assumed reaction time and brake deceleration (see slide 9)

Pass/Fail Criteria (2) – Impact to Side of HGV
• Still prevent HGV from crossing pedestrian path
• Crossing bicycle trajectory happens earlier
• Warning needs to be issued earlier – LPI shifts
• In most cases, HGV has not started to turn at that point

Definition of Test Cases
• Necessary Sensor Field-of-View (SFOV) – Scenario characteristics define possible
locations of bicycle relative to HGV – Assumed driver performance defines
last point of information (LPI) – Heatmap (resolution 1mx1°) shows all
possible bicycle locations from 4 s before LPI until impact
– This does NOT mean the complete heatmap needs to be covered
• Define Test Cases – Derive test cases to fill SFOV space

Test Results and Conclusions
• Prototype information system implemented in HGV • Test Scenarios carried out:
– Case 1, 0/4 tests passed, bicycle movement starts late – Case 4, 4/4 tests passed – Case 6, 3/4 tests passed – Other test scenarios were not possible because of bug in
dummy control software (to be fixed soon) • Manual driving using cones is possible (driving robots not
required) • Manual speed control is possible • Corridors for trajectory and speed will be defined

Conclusions
• Accidentology shows that accidents between truck and bicycle occur: – With right-turning trucks – Constant and slowly moving trucks and bicycles – Pedestrians are not relevant in these accidents
• A Test Procedure has been defined based on accidentology – Requirements for an information-only system – Test setup and pass criteria – Tools
• Verification Tests for 3 out of 7 test cases have been successfully performed
