Abstract: The car was a 55 plate Ford Fiesta 1.25L Zetec. The car was driven from the University of Birmingham in a circuitous route through Edgbaston and Harborne, back to join the A38 through Selly Oak before returning to the University campus. The speed limit on all roads was 30mph. The car was stopped in a traffic jam in Selly Oak towards the end of the journey. The whole journey lasted just under 16mins. The accelerometer data has had the DC offset removed. As well as accelerometer data there is wheel speed and GPS data from the journey. For more information on the accelerometers and to access the other data please see the additional information link.
