Although there has been less overall driving due to the pandemic, there continues to be a significant increase of road crashes, with more than 40,000 people dying in traffic crashes on American roadways in 2020. Trucks represent 12% of total road fatalities, while only making up 4% of the vehicles operating on the road. And with 72% of America’s freight transport being moved by trucks, transportation-related organizations are an essential part of our communities and have a vital role to play in both safety and sustainability.
The Truck of the Future program identifies and tests innovative and cost-effective solutions to eliminate collisions between large vehicle operators and other road users, especially the most vulnerable, with driver visibility a high priority. Utilizing connected cameras and video telematics from VisionTrack, drivers can gain 360 degree visibility around the vehicle and help save lives.
“The incorporation of new technologies, data and innovative approaches to road safety, is imperative to eliminating fatalities and making roads safe for all,” says Noah Budnick, Executive Director, Together for Safer Roads. “Partnering with VisionTrack enhances our ability to make Vision Zero a global reality.”
