Computers are quickly taking over safety-critical functions in transportation systems. Not sur-prisingly, we are starting to experience incidents and accidents related to the software components in these systems, including a recent recall related to ABS failure. Software allows unprecedented complexity and coupling in these systems, and these factors are stretching our current engineer-ing techniques for assuring acceptable risk. This paper summarizes the state of the art in software system safety and suggests some approaches pos-sible for the automotive and other industries.
