How do drivers react to ADAS features in their vehicles today? How many drivers know the limitations of technologies that are supposedly as simple as blind spot warnings in their vehicles? SAFE Greg and Pete explored these questions at AVS 2019 with Dr. David Yang, Executive Director of the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety was founded in 1947 as a not-for-profit research and education organization focused on saving lives through preventing traffic collisions and reducing injuries when crashes do occur. Dr. Yang chatted with us about some of the fascinating research they are undertaking across four priority areas: driver behavior and performance, emerging technologies, roadway systems and drivers, and vulnerable road users.Learn more about the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety here: https://aaafoundation.org/ As always, you can also keep up with the Mobility Podcast on Twitter: @MobilityPodcast, @AVGregR, @SharedMobilityS, @SmarterTranspo.Learn more about AVS here: https://www.automatedvehiclessymposium.org/home
