ADAC Accident Research – Accident Analysis based Simulation of the most Dangerous Scenarios
- For more than a decade, ADAC accident researchers have analysed road accidents with severe injuries, recording some 20,000 accidents. An important task in accident research is to determine the causative factors of road accidents. Apart from vehicle engineering and human factors, accident research also focuses on infrastructural and
environmental aspects.
To find out what accident scenarios are the most common in ADAC accident research and what driver assistance systems can prevent them, our first task was to conduct a detailed accident analysis.
Using CarMaker, we performed a realistic simulation of accident scenarios, including crashes, with varying parameters. To begin with, we made an initial selection of driver assistance systems in order to determine those with the greatest accident prevention potential.
One important finding of this study is that the safety potential of the individual driver assistance systems can actually be examined. It also turned out that active safety offers even much more potential for development andFor more than a decade, ADAC accident researchers have analysed road accidents with severe injuries, recording some 20,000 accidents.

One important finding of this study is that the safety potential of the individual driver assistance systems can actually be examined. It also turned out that active safety offers even much more potential for development and innovation than passive safety. At the same time, testing becomes more demanding, too, as new systems keep entering the market, many of them differing in functional details.
ADAC will continue to test all driver assistance systems as realistically as possible so as to be able to provide advice
to car buyers. Therefore, it will be essential to develop and improve test conditions and criteria.…
