  17. Automated emergency braking sounds nice, but can we trust AI systems to make life-and-death decisions?

  18. Autonomous #emergencybraking systems have been used for several years, but maybe it’s time to integrate them with AI systems.

  19. This is a perfect idea! Most accidents are caused by careless driving, and seeing the aftermath may be just the shock drivers need to be more careful on the roads.

  20. Driving while being aware of everything in your surrounding is not only safe but could be fun.

  21. Stella

    Thought of this when visiting Paulton’s par with the kids

  22. they should make software for cars that teaches you to drive and also to administer your driving test, agreed. One day there will be better than the games you can currently play to get a sort of feel for driving. Not sure if you will need a licence in the future with self-driving cars though (?)

  23. Good idea, and I am surprised there isn’t a type of car that is equipped to help teach driving skills. As far as I know, people use driving simulators and games to learn the basics, but that is before they get in a car. Not ideal. DriveSim is one example.

  24. Not sure why Musk is against them though,,,, lol.

  25. There seems to be 2 options, fuel for the engine or fuel to power the electric motor. Either would be better than dirty diesel.

  26. Silly that someone doesn’t incorporate regular parking sensors with the gearbox, so easy to do too. Love the idea, bound to be realised by someone soonish.

  27. Just use this – Self Evident is a free, convenient and effective way for people across England & Wales to engage with the police. With 28,000 registered users already, the app is used every day to report crime and capture digital evidence.

  28. DecibelX looks good for measuring loudness but it would need integration with camera and messenger to send to the police. Like the idea though – noise is antisocial pollution

  29. How about regenerative braking technology in an e-bike?
