Commercial Vehicle Operations - Roadside report discusses the findings and conclusions exclusively from Field Operational Tests (FOTs) of roadside Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) for Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO). The FOTs considered in this report include: The technologies demonstrated by the Field Operational Tests (FOTs) discussed in this report include Geographic Positioning Systems (GPS), Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC), License Plate Recognition (LPR), Weigh In Motion (WIM), Road Weather Information Systems (RWIS) and Downhill Speed Information Systems (DSIS). The FOTs considered in this report include: Tranzit Xpress Systems, Advantage I-75 Mainline Automatic Clearance Project, Wisconsin/Minnesota Automatic Out-Of-Service, Oregon Green Light Commercial Vehicle Operations Test, Heavy Vehicle License Plate/ Crescent, Idaho Out-Of-Service, Dynamic Downhill Truck Speed Warning System Test, International Border Crossing Tests and Automated Mileage and State Line Crossing Operational Test. The report findings are organized in the categories of impact, user response, technical lessons learned and institutional challenges and resolutions. This report highlights the successes and problems these tests encountered while attempting to develop the technologies appropriate to effectively automate commercial vehicle administrative processes.
