Transport Canada has initiated informal consultations with industry on the use of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) to determine if the multitude of current and forthcoming ADAS technology could be mandated on new heavy commercial trucks in future vehicle standards regulations.<\/p>\n

To guide its comments to the government on this important initiative, CTA collaborated with\u00a0carriers,\u00a0OEM supplier members and the Truck and Engine Manufacturers Association (EMA).<\/p>\n

\u201cCTA believes that driver assist systems available for heavy-duty trucks (class 8), combined with appropriate training, could be a significant factor in maintaining and improving safety performance,\u201d said Geoff Wood, CTA.<\/p>\n

Wood thanked Transport Canada for beginning the ADAS consultation process, which is a key item from CTA\u2019s\u00a010-point action plan on truck safety<\/a>, which the Alliance proposed to governments and safety stakeholders in the wake of the tragic Humboldt Broncos crash.<\/p>\n

The possibility of mandates for specific technologies will require collective input from the Government of Canada, the Canadian trucking industry and its various sector participants, as well as the insurance industry and the truck, engine and trailer manufacturing communities.\u00a0The Canadian experience \u2013 which considers specific market and operational norms and conditions, seasonality, among other factors,\u00a0 including relevant crash data\u00a0\u2013 would determine if certain ADAS systems should be considered for a vehicle standard as well as the ADAS solutions that could be considered effective in improving public safety and most appropriate for certain sectors in our diverse industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce all of these groups are at the table, we can collectively examine\u00a0crash data and assess\u00a0technologies that are strongly being considered for mandate in the United States, which is where the bulk of heavy truck and trailer manufacturing takes place, and determine the suitability\u00a0of these technologies for Canada\u2019s over-the-road and vocational sectors,\u201d says Wood. \u201cExtracting as much data as possible from the systems will provide the insight needed to account for the unique Canadian trucking experience, which includes heavier weights and seasonal and climatic differences.\u201d<\/p>\n

The analysis will highlight opportunities and challenges these technologies pose and compare proposals such as mandating broader vehicle standards versus allowing the industry to voluntarily adopt systems that work best for their individual applications.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuch findings will be imperative in deciding between blanket mandates or market incentives for adoption,\u201d said Wood.<\/p>\n

To spur key data as the analysis takes shape, CTA also urged governments to create incentives for fleets to purchase and install ADAS if they agree to share operating data with regulators and stakeholders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
