Avoid using blank messages on dynamic message signs (DMS) including dashes for travel time applications as drivers may not understand these signs or assume they are broken.
Date Posted: 09/26/2017 | Source Date:
Implement location-based filtering to modify threat assessments or alerts where drivers choose not to respond to repeated in-vehicle warnings.
Date Posted: 09/26/2017 | Source Date:
Arbitrate driver warnings generated by in-vehicle systems to prevent confusion in cases where multiple warnings are presented in multiple threat scenarios.
