The IHSDM expert system aims to help highway designers improve safety by identifying design flaws. Researchers explored different methods to gather knowledge for the system, such as interviewing experts and studying accident sites. They found that these methods can provide valuable insights for developing the system's knowledge base. The goal is to create a prototype DRC that can suggest improvements to enhance roadway safety.
