This was done specifically for Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications, which represent the two most promising technologies in the short-term and medium-term future. The results demonstrate that a delay in introduction, or a slower rate of introduction, can have a substantial effect on how long it takes for the safety benefits to be realised in the greater vehicle fleet. | Journal Title | Journal of the Australasian College of Road Safety | Journal Volume (Issue) | 28(1) | Page Range | 20-26 | Notes | The paper is available online at http://acrs.org.au/journals/february-2017-vol-28-no-1/ |
