Abstract

To date, there has been very little improvement in the ability to detect lane level irregular driving styles, mainly due to a lack of high performance positioning techniques and suitable driving pattern recognition algorithms. This chapter sets out the problems that currently exist in regard to these safety issues, and the current focus of research to address these problems. This is followed by the identification of the relevant key issues for this thesis and the formulation of its objectives. The chapter ends by outlining the structure of the rest of the thesis.
