The Run-Off-Road Collision Avoidance Using IVHS Countermeasures program is to address the single vehicle crash problem through application of technology to prevent and/or reduce the severity of these crashes. This report describes and documents the analysis sequence conducted in Task 2 to achieve the following objectives: Establish Collision Taxonomy, the run-off-road collision population is to be classified in subsets that provide a basis for identifying opportunities for intervention in the sequence of events leading to a crash; and Develop Functional Goals, on the basis of the consequences and factors that precede run-off-road collision subsets, determine functional goals that will eliminate or mitigate the severity of these crashes.
