AI traffic safety concerns the use of artificial intelligence to prevent crashes and reduce injuries in road transport systems. Work in this area spans perception and decision-making for autonomous and cooperative driving, AI-enhanced traffic cameras and inspections, and predictive tools for urban planning and enforcement. Human factors are central, including driver stress and vigilance monitoring, cognitive load and takeover performance in semi-autonomous vehicles, moral decision-making in automated systems, and feedback-based interventions that shape safer driving behavior.
