**6.15 Intersection safety**

In an intersection situation especially in cities, a driver has to fulfill several tasks in parallel. In order to assist the driver in such situations, it is necessary to support certain tasks like approaching a stop sign/traffic light or right of way of crossing traffic. The complexity of the possible intersection scenarios leads to the high risk probabilities of causing accidents. As any intersections are designed to address a number of turning movements of automobile traffic coupled with the non-motorized and pedestrian traffic, the detection and recognition are not as simple as on a straight section of a road. Due to these complexities, the safety of the road intersection would have to be taken into all possible scenarios to make hazard free zone.
