The automotive industry has always strived to make driving more enjoyable and safer. Based on the latest development, it can be seen that the trend is leading to more electronic supporters in the vehicle. Vulnerable road users like pedestrian and cyclists currently only passively participate in the active communication of the intelligent transportation system. In the current work, we examine to which extend the traffic related communication process can be extended to vulnerable road users outside the vehicular field of vision using mobile devices. First, based on literature research we derive accident-pandering factors creating five typical scenarios that lead to traffic accidents. Second, utilizing those scenarios, we raise functional and nonfunctional requirements for communication systems between road users. Third, we examine the communications technologies of smartphones that could be deployed. Fourth, we describe the implementation of two approaches with different communication technologies (Bluetooth Low Energy and Wi-Fi Direct). The evaluation of both implementations completes the current work.
