eSafety Data in the European Road Safety Observatory - Survey

Creation date: 18 November 2010

The questionnaire will take 5 to 10 minutes. Deadline 26 November 2010.

Survey Purpose

The European Commission's FP7 DaCoTA (Road safety Data Collection, Transfer and Analysis) project (www.dacota-project.eu) is in the process of examining how to most effectively integrate road safety data concerning 'eSafety' into the European Road Safety Observatory (ERSO) website (www.ec.europa.eu/transport/road_safety/specialist/index_en.htm).

eSafety is a term used to describe new intelligent technologies that are rapidly being deployed into the transport system with the intention of reducing casualties and improving transport efficiency.

Examples include driver information and hazard alert systems (e.g. lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, vehicle 2 vehicle communication) as well as autonomous systems that modify vehicle dynamics (e.g. electronic stability control, lane departure assist, autonomous emergency braking).  Infrastructure technologies that interact with advanced vehicle systems will also be considered (e.g. eCall, intersection safety).

Through ERSO results from eSafety studies and good practice methodologies/tools for evaluation will be available.

We would be very grateful if you could find the time to fill out the following questionnaire which has three primary aims.  To discover:

• what eSafety data you would like to be available to you on the ERSO website?
• what eSafety data do you have that you could make available on the ERSO website?
• some general thoughts on eSafety technologies and legislation.

Deadline is 26 November 2010. Answer the survey now!
