Abstract :
Safety on our roads is paramount and there is no single “magic bullet” to optimise safety. The use of Technology provides key tools for achieving real reduction in road casualties, particularly when combined with other measures, such as education and engineering. This paper looks at the impact of existing and future measures across a selection of road types, including motorways, trunk roads and urban roads, and is divided into the following parts: · In Car · Highway Infrastructure · Enforcement · The Future.
