abstract="Validating data from driving simulator studies is important to any research program that intends to generate design recommendations based on the data collected. Direct validation is often difficult, as driving simulators are frequently used to put drivers in conditions too dangerous to test on the road. This is particularly true for crash avoidance research. Although numerous crash avoidance studies have been conducted using simulators, test tracks, and field experiments, few crash avoidance simulator studies have been designed to include a specific validation study on a test track or on public roads. With this in mind, this paper compares data collected in the Iowa Driving Simulator (IDS) to test track data collected by the Collision Avoidance Metrics Partnership (CAMP). CAMP is a partnership established by Ford and General Motors to accelerate the implementation of automotive crash avoidance countermeasures and to define pre-competitive enabling elements. This study was designed to duplicate a series of test track experiments that were part of the CAMP program. Comparisons were made between braking responses across simulator and test track studies.<p />",
