DRLs for Pedestrian Protection

(Author: Paul A Thompson, General Motors Corp. Click Here to buy the above SAE paper)

This DRL study presented in 2003 shows statistical evidence of an estimated 772 fewer pedestrian collisions since 1995 when GM began including DRLs as standard equipment on all their vehicles. More strikingly, 348 of these pedestrian collisions would have involved children under 12 …

This study quotes "For pedestrians of all ages, a reduction is estimated for vehicles equipped with DRLs as high as 9.93%. For children under the age of twelve the reduction is estimated as high as 14.91%."

This study also states: "Among the findings of the new study is a noticeable positive effect of turn signal DRLs ." Findings in this study also PROVE turn signal DRLs are superior when compared to other DRL types:

Study Results
DRL Types	Reduction in Collision Rate	Reduction Factor Over Other Types
Amber Turn Signal DRLs	12.40%	N/A
Dedicated bulb	8.67%	1.43
Reduced Intensity High Beam	4.86%	2.55
Full Intensity Low Beam Headlights	3.23 %	3.84
Reduced Intensity High/Low Beam	6.81%	1.82
Reduced Intensity Low Beam	2.31%	5.37

NOTE: Amber Turn Signal DRLs are proven 3.8 times more effective than full power low beam headlights, and 5.3 times more effective than reduced power low beam headlights, as related to collision reductions.

More study quotes: "The present study shows that DRLs are effective in reducing collisions with other vehicles and with pedestrians ... The study does suggest a possible relationship between color contrast and conspicuity."

"The recent GM study on DRL effectiveness further validates the findings of previous studies. Namely, that vehicles equipped with DRLs are in fewer collisions with other vehicles and pedestrians in the United States."

"This new study and others preceeding it show DRLs to be a significant advancement in crash avoidance. Accordingly, there will be a definite benefit if DRLs are mandated in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 108 - Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Fact: This study confirms a large difference in effectiveness for the various implementations of DRL.

Bottom line: DRL Products are statistically proven to save pedestrian lives. DRLs help keep young children from wandering into the street and being struck and/or killed by an automobile at an extremely low cost addition when compared to the value it affords. This means that a percentage of all pedestrian fatalities and injuries could be prevented (child pedestrian (child-to-vehicle) reductions in this study were 14.91%!)

Proof that DRLs not only save lives, but AMBER turn signal bulb-energized types simply work better. Remember, any DRL is better than no DRL at all. DRLs help save lives and reduce property damage, end of story.

Results: AMBER Turn DRLs were not only found to be the most effective DRL type overall, but were found to prevent pedestrian child-to-vehicle collisions by nearly 15%, and also found to prevent pedestrian-to-vehicle collisions of all age groups by up to 10%!

Compare and contrast this with pedestrian fatality statistics in the US

Motor vehicles in the U.S. annually cause about 5000 pedestrian fatalities and 70,000 pedestrian injuries, with more than 1/3 of them occuring during daytime hours.

Children 15 years of age and under account for 11% of all pedestrian fatalities, and adults 70 years and older account for another 18%. Among children between the ages of 5 and 9 who are killed in auto accidents, 25% are pedestrians.

Amber DRLs can save significant numbers of pedestrian lives and injuries in North America, plus, even more significantly:

ALL motor vehicles already possess AMBER lamps...
