The program described by this eight-volume report, a resource materials document type, identified the issues and risks associated with the potential design, development, and operation of an Automated Highway System (AHS), a highway system that utilizes limited access roadways and provides 'hands off' driving. The AHS effort was conducted by a team formed and directed by the Calspan Advanced Technology Center. The 17 task reports (A through P plus Representative Systems Configurations) are organized into 8 volumes. This volume provides an overview of the program.
