Description
Summary:Traffic regulations provide a solid foundation for the safety of all road users; however, the ambiguous provisions and unclear safety thresholds within these regulations pose significant challenges to compliance, particularly concerning the safe operation of autonomous vehicles. To address this issue, this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of vehicle emergency braking behavior based on the Aerial Dataset for China Congested Highway and Expressway (AD4CHE). The extraction method for the emergency braking risk scenario of natural driving data is proposed, and the correlation between safe distance, safe speed, and driving safety under the scenario of a slightly congested expressway is elaborated in detail. The safety threshold of ambiguous traffic rules obtained can be used for the digitalization of traffic rules that can support the functional development and traffic safety testing of automated driving systems.
