🎉 We’re celebrating 500 Safe System Snippets 🎉
This incredible video from Norway highlights some fantastic vehicle safety features in modern larger vehicles. This is an essential part of the Safe System approach, and it’s a brilliant demonstration of how advanced technology can save lives.
What else caught our attention?… the ramp down terminals on the barrier system. While these are common in many part so the world, we’d like to see them replaced with crash-tested gating, redirective energy-absorbing terminals. These systems prevent vehicles from being vaulted into the roadside, offering a safer solution for all road users.
The Safe System is a holistic approach that considers:
- Road and roadside design: Creating forgiving environments that reduce crash likelihood and severity.
- Vehicles: Incorporating advanced safety features.
- Speed: Ensuring speeds are set with the biomechanical tolerance of the human body in mind.
- Human Behaviour: Supporting people to act safely while recognising human fallibility.
