Many unique behavior was observed like pedestrian crossed half way and stopped in middle of road. Nearly 10% of pedestrians are fatal each year involving in ~5% of overall accidents in India, This study revels every second pedestrian accident occurred while walking and crossing the road straight. An attempt made to evaluate benefit of in vehicle pedestrian safety systems, as an example Car-AEB (Advance Emergency Braking) pedestrian is selected as one of the available technologies and systematic methodology is derived in order to evaluate the benefit of this product.
