organised by Kentucky Transportation Center
University of Kentucky, Lexington (USA)
The 9th RSS International Conference took place in Lexington, with the title “Improving Decisions Through Safety and Simulation Tools”. Putting these tools into practice lets agencies automate complicated processes, provide consistent decision support, rely on science-based and data-driven analysis, and give their safety practitioners the ability to perform complex analyses quickly.
Workshops and expert panel were organised.
More than 250 delegates attended the conference discussing about more than 25 different themes.
RSS2022
NTUA, Athens (Greece)
The Conference’s theme “Road Safety and Digitalization” aimed to capture all recent trends in road safety emerging technologies, surrogate measures, augmented and virtual reality, big data, modeling and simulation, which are expected to boost global road safety in the coming years.
About 350 delegates from all over the world in more than 140 papers and 25 sessions, will joined forces for a widely open discussion, presenting both traditional and innovative solutions with high potential for traffic safety improvement.
RSS2019
The selected conference theme “Transformation in Transportation” paved the way for participants to discuss the increasing levels of automation, the connected vehicles and the relationship with roads users.
A variety of technical tours and daily workshops were organised.
Some of the most advanced simulators in the world were visited by more than 130 delegates.
