Every year more than 40,000 people in the US are killed in road accidents and research suggests that over 90% of those incidents are caused due to human error. An Autonomous Vehicle (AV) is never distracted, drunk or drowsy and can help improve road safety by eliminating accidents caused by human error.

Philip Koopman states that in a bustling city like San Francisco, traditional driving has always come with its risks, including the impact of human error and impaired driving. However, the advent of autonomous vehicles is reshaping the narrative, promising a significant reduction in accidents. As we embrace this innovation, the debate continues on how much safer our roads can become. 🤔💥 #FutureOfDriving #TechInnovation #SafetyFirst #VehicleSafety #AutomotiveCybersecurity #ISO21434 #ISO26262 #AutonomousVehicle

# Artificial Intelligence Taking Over A Keele criminologist is working alongside the UK Home Office to study how rising numbers of autonomous vehicles will impact the way that the UK is policed. Connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) are becoming increasingly common in the UK. Some predictions estimate that around 40% of cars in the UK will have some kind of autonomous capability by 2035. This shift has the potential to drastically change the way roads are used by the public and the police alike, as well as how offences are committed and investigated.

Emergency vehicle scenarios in AVSandbox - Claytex Tech Blog - By: Felipe Ferrary, Senior Software Engineer & Saptarshi Mukherjee (Ph.D.), Simulation Engineer Incidents involving autonomous vehicles (AV) and emergency vehicles raise lots of questions on how an AV should behave when they have to deal with those type of traffic vehicles at different situations such as high-speed motorways or low-speed intersections (both with and without traffic lights). Should an AV always give way to an emergency vehicle? Should it make an emergency braking at high speed when approaching a junction at the same time as an emergency vehicle? Should it rush through a red traffic light if blocking an emergency vehicle? These are all decisions that are logical for humans while driving, but not clear enough for AVs yet.

If you know anyone who is interested in the future of highway safety, I hope you'll pass this along to them. We'll be discussing autonomous vehicles and new high-tech highways, and more. www.NCFOR.us/register Autonomous vehicles have five categories. Level 1 is simple lane assist to Level 5 which is a vehicle capable of driving itself. One of the companies presenting at the conference says that its technology is already capable of Level 5 on snowy and icy roads. What are the implications for government officials, insurance companies, and average citizens? We intend to find out! #highwaysafety #techcommunity #utah #usdot

#FactFriday: The rate of #AutonomousVehicle accidents are estimated to be ~80% lower than that associated with human drivers (ARK Investment Management LLC 2024). In full self driving (FSD) mode on surface streets, a #Tesla appears to be ~5x safer than a Tesla in manual mode, and ~16x safer than the national average. Waymo’s autonomous cars are ~2-3x safer than the national average, while Cruise—now sidelined by regulators—seems to have underperformed the national average considerably. #ARKInvest #ActiveETFs #AI #Robotics

The UK has recently passed the Autonomous Vehicles Act as a law, allowing self-driving cars to hit public roads by 2026. While the legislation is a tad too late compared to the US, the government says allowing autonomous vehicles is a way to improve road safety by reducing human error.
