On streetcars and other tram, collisions between vehicles are prevented by the driver's visual operation. On the other hand, about half of the number of collisions on tram from 2019 to 2024 are due to driver's assumptions and errors in judgment. Therefore, we hypothesized that the number of accidents could be reduced by installing devices to assist the driver. In this paper, we examine a method for detecting vehicles in front using LiDAR sensors in order to prevent collisions between vehicles. We have investigated the feasibility of this method using an actual vehicle and will report here.
