Safety-related traffic info in Europe set to be standardised Traveller Information Services Association (Tisa), Datex II, Car 2 Car Communication Consortium, Data For Road Safety (DFRS) ecosystem, Napcore and C-Roads have got together to improve harmonisation of message sets for safety-related traffic information (SRTI), addressing the EU Delegated Regulation 886/2013 (Priority Action c of the European ITS Directive 2020/40/EU). https://lnkd.in/evP34exv

I have driven 4,000+ miles over the past ten days, and I'm convinced that it's impossible to get to a place in the time estimated by navigation systems without driving constantly over the speed limit. I guess that modern navigation systems collect data in real time from drivers, who, on average, drive about ten mph above the limit. I also suspect drivers may feel pressured to speed to match the navigator's estimated arrival time, contributing to the problem. I'd love an option to use the speed limits to calculate the shortest possible travel time. The estimated time displayed by the navigator should be adjusted based on traffic conditions but should never be lower than the shortest “legal” travel time.

Where's the bus? Get arrival times via text! 1. Find the bus stop ID on the sign. 2. Text “RT4” followed by the bus stop ID and Route to 41411. Example: RT4 BUS215 1B. 3. Receive next three departure times via text.

The findings are intriguing, shedding light on crucial aspects of road safety and management. The bar chart race illustrates a fluctuating pattern from 2003 to 2022. Initially, we observed a decline in accidents up to 2010, followed by a notable increase in subsequent years. Notably, the pandemic-induced lockdowns in 2020 and 2021 led to a temporary reduction in accidents, reflecting the impact of reduced traffic volume. However, despite these fluctuations, a dominant increasing trend is evident in recent years, emphasizing the need for proactive measures to address road safety challenges. Some highways, such as A205 and A208, exhibit disproportionately high accident rates per kilometer due to their shorter length as a connection between two other highways. Similarly, the bustling A10 highway encircling Amsterdam presents unique challenges given its heavy traffic flow. At Inspectigence, we're collaborating with Rijkswaterstaat to collect data on the 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 along these highways. By enhancing the availability and clarity of markings, we aim to provide drivers with better guidance and improve overall road safety. Moreover, our innovative approach involves engaging drivers in data collection efforts through our proposed smartphone application, fostering a culture of safety awareness and proactive participation. We encourage drivers to make an impact by collecting data, thereby contributing to our mission. We anticipate that these collective efforts will yield tangible results in the form of reduced accidents and lives saved in the years to come. https://lnkd.in/dcqhKmJk 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀? 🛣️ #RoadSafety #DataAnalysis #Rijkswaterstaat #TrafficAccidents #TrafficSafety #RoadSafety #Municipalities #DataForChange #Inspectigence #Inspectimark #RoadMarkings I made this bar chart race with https://flourish.studio/

🚦 Attention drivers! If you ever find yourself entering an intersection and notice the traffic light is out, remember these crucial steps: 1. Treat it as a 4-way stop: Proceed cautiously and treat the intersection as if it has stop signs in all directions. This means yielding to any vehicles already in the intersection and waiting your turn to proceed. 2. Be patient: Take your time to assess the situation and ensure it’s safe to proceed before entering the intersection.
