The five top issues for describing cyclists’ safety situation are outlined and discussed. ITS issues for environmental adaptation are highlighted. Measures for improving confidence and security, guidance, and getting contact with and/or being localized are suggested.
The following five systems, which were estimated to have high potential to improve the safety of cyclists, are described and evaluated: Blind Spot Detection (BSD), Bicycle to Vehicle communication (B2V), Intersection safety (INS), Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection System + Emergency Braking (PCDS + EBR), and Vulnerable Road User Beacon System (VBS). A forecast for 2030, taking into accounts the estimated accident trends and penetration rates, showed the highest effects from implementation of PCDS + EBR and BSD.
