  1. Informal document WP.29-154-21-Rev.1 (154th WP.29, 21-24 June 2011, agenda item 19) National Highway Traffic Safety AdministrationUSA: Rulemaking and Research Prioritieshttp://www.nhtsa.gov/staticfiles/rulemaking/pdf/2011-2013_Vehicle_Safety-Fuel_Economy_Rulemaking-Research_Priority_Plan.pdf Christopher J. Bonanti Associate Administrator for Rulemaking June 23, 2011

  2. Developing Standards • Based on relevant vehicle safety information • Real world crash, death and injury data • Research • Meet a safety need • Be practicable • (Technologically and economically) • Objectively measurable compliance • Performance-oriented • (Not unnecessarily design restrictive) • Appropriateness of standard for each vehicle type • Developed through public process: notice of proposal published and opportunity for public to comment

  3. Analysis of Motor Vehicle Crashes • Vehicle Type • Crashworthiness • Crash Avoidance • Crash Partners • Body Region injured • Societal Costs Brain injuries and ankle/knee injuries have long-term disability and high societal costs

  4. 2009 Fatalities by Vehicle Type Total Fatalities - 33,808 * Passenger Vehicles = Passenger cars and light trucks (SUVs, vans, & pickups) ** Nonoccupants include pedestrians, bicyclists, and unknown/other nonoccupants

  5. Crashworthiness – Crash Types Initial Point of Impact in Fatal Cashes (2009)

  6. Crash Avoidance – New Technologies

  7. Crash Partners Passenger Cars Light Trucks

  8. Rulemaking Priorities • Heavy Trucks • Truck Tractor and Motorcoach Stability Control • NCAP Updates • Updating injury criteria in frontal and side impact programs • Identify additional advanced technologies through real-world crash data analysis • Develop test procedures for new technologies

  9. Rulemaking Priorities • Crash Avoidance • Quiet Cars • Brake Override • Keyless ignition • Child Safety • Side impact for child restraints • NCAP Vehicle-CRS Fit Program • Rearward visibility • Motor Coach Safety • Seat belts • Fire safety protection • Emergency evacuation • Rollover Structural Integrity

  10. Research PrioritiesCrash Avoidance • Connected Vehicles • Distraction • Alcohol • Pedestrian Crash Avoidance • Medium Truck and Bus Stability Control • Heavy-Vehicle Forward Collision Avoidance and Mitigation

  11. Research PrioritiesCrashworthiness • Lithium Ion Battery Safety • Countermeasures for “lightweighted” vehicles • Low Offset/Oblique Frontal • Dynamic Rollover • Anthropometric Test Devices (crash dummies) • Vulnerable Occupant Injury Analysis

  12. Research PrioritiesElectronic Control Systems • Reliability • Fail Safe Strategies • Diagnostic Strategies and Trouble Codes • Software strategies and Validation Requirements • Hardware and System Validation • Electromagnetic Compatibility • Human/Machine Interface • Shared control • Transitional Control • Control failure warning and notification
