Abstract

ransportation is currently facing significant challenges from a variety of factors including growing populations and number of vehicles, rising urbanization, negligent driving, and environmental issues. An interdisciplinary approach is needed to address these complex problems, and information and communications technologies (ICT) are emerging as leading contributors to the future of transport. With more than one million victims in road accidents annually, the improvement in safety and efficiency of the transportation system is of major interest for industrial and academic research. The use of ICT in development of intelligent safety systems, driver assistance systems, cooperative driving networks, and smart transport infrastructure is expected to contribute to significant reduction of road accident and traffic congestion. In this context, this special issue aims at providing a collection of innovative and high-quality research contributions focusing on smart technologies for vehicle safety and driver assistance. 28 papers were submitted for this issue; 12 of them were accepted for publication and were summarized...
