Experimental Communication Message Guidelines of Safe Driving Support and Autonomous Driving Support Systems for General Roads


Number RC-019
Name Experimental Communication Message Guidelines of Safe Driving Support and Autonomous Driving Support Systems for General Roads
Enactment Date Apr 23, 2025
General Description This document is a guideline that establishes experimental communication message specifications for preventing traffic accidents and various types of incidents by having roadside units indicate the presence of traffic participants through wireless communication with the purpose of supporting safe driving and autonomous driving support for vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, and other general traffic participants on general roads. The effects that are expected from the provision of information using such messages include preventing oversight of general traffic participants and complementing the cognitive functions (autonomous sensors) of automated vehicles in various scenarios, such as intersection entry, turning left or right, and single-lane driving.
These guidelines can also be used for purposes other than safe driving support and autonomous driving support (such as smoothing traffic flows, collecting probe information, and providing monitoring support).
It is hoped that these guidelines will be adequately verified through demonstration experiments and the like of the relevant systems and that they will further promote activities for practical application.
