A road user identification system for identifying a road user is provided. The system includes a digital camera generating a digital image of a road with the road user on the road. The system further includes a computer operably coupled to the digital camera that receives the digital image. The computer has a digital image based classification model with a neural network machine learning algorithm that analyzes the digital image and determines a first probability value. The first probability value indicates a probability that the road user has a first wearable marker that is associated with a specific type of road user. The computer stores a road user identifier corresponding to the specific type of road user in a memory device when the first probability value is greater than a threshold probability value.
