Roadway Safety Warning System

• The field element shall support remote monitoring and control by an authenticated center.
• The field element shall provide warnings to passing vehicles using field-vehicle communications.
• The field element shall process the collected data to identify potential hazards.
• The field element shall collect data from sensors and surveillance equipment to monitor environmental conditions, stopped or wrong way vehicles, roadway debris, or other potentially hazardous conditions.
• The field element shall collect safety data from passing vehicles including location, vehicle motion (speed, heading, acceleration), vehicle control (brakes, steering, throttle, exterior lights), and additional vehicle status (anti-lock brake activation, stability control activation).

Roadway Traffic Information Dissemination

• The field element shall include dynamic messages signs for dissemination of traffic and other information to drivers, under center control; the DMS may be either those that display variable text messages, or those that have fixed format display(s) (e.g. vehicle restrictions, or lane open/close).

Vehicle Warning System

• The vehicle shall receive warnings from field elements.
• The vehicle shall provide its location, speed, direction, and other information to field elements.
• The vehicle shall provide its location, speed, direction, and other information to surrounding vehicles.
• The vehicle shall warn the driver if the driver should take action to avoid a collision.
