TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - ICT and road transportation safety in the United States: a case of "American exceptionalism" JO - IATSS research A1 - L. Gifford, Jonathan SP - 1 EP - 8 VL - 34 IS - 1 N2 - This paper examines American attitudes about the role and structure of government and how those attitudes affect the safety potential of ICT-based road safety technologies. It examines these attitudes in the context of 3 current intelligent transportation systems (ITS) initiatives: IntelliDriveSM, active traffic management (ATM), and automated enforcement. It concludes that cultural attitudes have a strong influence on the acceptance of such systems, and provides suggestions for how such systems might be implemented successfully.
