About this file

Appendix G - Sample ADS Testing Forms contains sample test plans for evaluating the performance of Automated Driving Systems (ADS) on transit buses. The tests cover basic functions, isolated maneuvers, and integrated maneuver sequences, assessing the ADS's ability to acquire and store route information, execute navigation and lane keeping, respond to traffic signals and other dynamic objects, and interact with bus stops and passengers. The tests incorporate a variety of environmental conditions and anomalies to evaluate the ADS's robustness.

The related state and local contract opportunity is a Request for Solution (RFS) issued by Ingham County and the City of Lansing, Michigan, seeking Level 4 Automated Transit Buses. The RFS outlines the requirements and evaluation criteria for the automated transit buses, which must be able to navigate the specified service area and perform the functions detailed in Appendix G. Responses to the RFS are due on a specific date, and a contract award will be made following the evaluation process.
