UDRIVE workshop – Europe’s first integrated riving study

UDRIVE is the first large-scale integrated driving study in Europe and aims to provide in-depth knowledge in a number of areas. Cars, trucks and motorcycles will be equipped with sensors and cameras for around one year and provide continuous and detailed information about the driver and the vehicle in interaction with other road users.

UDRIVE is the first large-scale integrated driving study in Europe and aims to provide in-depth knowledge in a number of areas. Cars, trucks and motorcycles will be equipped with sensors and cameras for around one year and provide continuous and detailed information about the driver and the vehicle in interaction with other road users. This will result in a wealth of information about everyday trips on European roads.

The UDRIVE project started in October 2012, and the forthcoming UDRIVE workshop offers the opportunity to get acquainted with the project, its aims and scope, to get involved and to contribute your ideas.  The workshop particularly aims at potential stakeholders including road administrations, car industry, insurance companies, road transport operators, road user organisations, driver training and certification organisations, as well as knowledge and research organisations.

The workshop will be held in Brussels, Belgium on 12 March 2013.  Following a general introduction to the project, its scope and the scientific approach, targeted discussion sessions will focus on some of the research areas of UDRIVE, with introductions of both UDRIVE experts and potential stakeholders:

•    crash causation factors;
•    distraction of drivers of passenger cars and trucks;
•    safety of motor cycles;
•    pedestrians and cyclists in interaction with cars; and
•    enhancing eco-driving knowledge
