The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) published a proposed rule to establish a new Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) that specifically focuses on vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications. If approved, the rule would mandate V2V communications for new light vehicles and standardize the message and format of the transmissions.
The proposed rule will work in tandem with the forthcoming rule on Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications, which will allow vehicles to “talk” to roadway infrastructure such as traffic lights, stop signs and work zones.
According to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA), the implementation of these combined technologies could eliminate or mitigate the severity of up to 80 percent of non-impaired crashes. The notice of proposed rulemaking will be open for public comment for 90 days.
ASA will include more information about the NHTSA proposal at the Connected CARS program on May 18-19, 2017, in Detroit, and the CARS program Nov. 2-4, 2017, in Las Vegas.
