Abstract

This study assesses a Vehicle-to-Pedestrian (V2P) collision warning system compared to conventional vehicle-issued auditory alerts in a real-world scenario simulating a vehicle on a fixed track, characterized by limited maneuverability and the need for timely pedestrian response. The results from analyzing speed variations show that V2P warnings are particularly effective for pedestrians distracted by phone use (gaming or listening to music), highlighting the limitations of auditory alerts in noisy environments. The findings suggest that V2P technology offers a promising approach to improving pedestrian safety in urban areas
