Abstract

Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) is an in-vehicle system that support drivers compliance with the speed limit. ISA is in fact a collective term for various different systems. Today, speeding was listed as the major cause of road accidents and traffic fatalities worldwide. By having a reliable and acceptable system that could alert the drivers about the speed limit in any particular areas, it will help in reducing the number of road accidents worldwide. This study was conducted to develop a system of Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) by using GPS that would alert the bus drivers in UiTM Shah Alam about speed limits in any particular areas and it must be reliable and acceptable. This research is to determine the factors of acceptance from the drivers towards the ISA system. The system developed was an advisory system. Hence, the way this system give warning about the speed limit to the driver is an important criterion to be taken care of. The output parameter of for this study is the driver’s acceptance towards this ISA system and they must be happy to have this system inside their vehicles.

Highlights

  • The speeding problem has led to the occurrence of road accidents

  • The objectives of this study were to study about the effect of Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) system with human speech kind of alert sound towards the speed profile of the Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Shah Alam’s bus drivers

  • We want to determine the level of acceptance of the bus drivers towards this kind of ISA system

Summary

Introduction

The speeding problem has led to the occurrence of road accidents. The increasing of the velocity of a vehicle could be used to describe the speeding matter. Common speed hump shapes are parabolic, circular and sinusoidal This intervention was used in a long time ago and proven to help in reducing speed problem. Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) is a system that continually monitors about vehicle speed and the local speed limit on a road and will implement an action such as giving a warning or discourages the drivers when the vehicle is detected to be exceeding the speed limit This action can be done through an advisory system, where the driver is warned, or through an intervention system where the driving systems of the vehicle automatically control the system to decrease the speed of the vehicle
