Abstract

In recent years, automakers have introduced the PCS (Pre-Collision System) which is designed to warn a driver or to brake automatically to help avoid or mitigate accidents. One of the significant aspects of this system is to help protect vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and bicyclists. In this paper, the research is introduced which analyzes normal bicyclist behavior in order to design and evaluate PCS systems. The attributes of normal bicyclist behavior investigated are: TTC (Time-To-Collision), lateral position, vehicle speed and bicycle speed. This behavior was analyzed using TASI’s (IUPUI’s Transportation Active Safety Institute) naturalistic driving data from 110 cars.
