NOPSEURA - Quality Assurance System - SPEEDAUDIT
Overview
Background & policy context:
Earlier studies have shown that a recording type of ISA (Intelligent Speed Adaptation) has a great safety potential and good possibilities for quick implementation. The development of a recording type of ISA system was continued on the basis of the results of a field trial conducted in 2002-2003. The City of Helsinki participated in the work as an example of a community partner which could exploit the system. One car owned by the City of Helsinki and seven taxicabs were monitored.
Objectives:
As a result of the further development, the SPEEDAUDIT system (an Internet-based speed monitoring system) will be presented in this report. The user acceptance and applicability of the system as part of the quality assurance and bonus schemes will also be examined.
The idea was to study the possibilities of different ISA options, study their potential, prepare a demo version of the selected ISA variant and propose further work to promote ISA.
Methodology:
The present state of Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) was examined as the basis for this study. A Delphi study was done to forecast future ISA scenarios. Also a field trial with a recording ISA for assessing possible traffic safety effects and user acceptance was carried out. The study was finalised with a demonstration with test users, whose experience was examined.
