The Importance of Horizontal and Vertical Signaling in Road Safety

Industrie Mica Prahova SA and Drumul in siguranta weblog published the study called "The Importance of Horizontal and Vertical Signaling in Road Safety", the first of its kind at national level. As per the traffic data presented at the beginning of the year by the Romanian Police, which reveal that over 1,540 people lost their lives and another 3,550 were injured in road accidents in 2023. The main causes of serious accidents are the failure to adapt speed to road conditions and irregular pedestrian crossing.

Assisting +300 ride-hailing drivers in Portugal!

The best practice in our community is using WingDriver's driving assistant algorithm that alerts drivers for dangerous behavior like distraction, fatigue and drowsiness.
 

We launched a targeted campaign to support, for free, +300 ride-hailing drivers in Portugal. In less than 30 days we've generated 200 wake-up alerts and almost 5000 distraction alerts while driving. It's been very impactful.

Let us know if you'd want support in launching something like this.

Analysis of available sight distance (ASD) and its comparison with the required, passing(overtaking) or any other type of sight distance, is a key activity for adequate road designing, speed management, road safety inspection and road maintenance. Obligations related to this activity arise from road design norms and manuals. However, in the engineering practice so far, the analysis of available sight distance was either inadequately treated or completely omitted. The reason for such a thing lies in the fact that there were no appropriate tools for effective and safe measuring of ASD.

Searching for solution, we at ''Panpro Team'' d.o.o. have developed innovative software for measuring of available sight distance based on analysis of virtual driver view moving through the cloud of points, recorded by modern mobile laser(lidar's) equipment.
