  • Nearly all new cars now come with automatic emergency braking and other safety features. Researchers say these systems are saving lives, but there's still debate about how to make them better.

The article from WPRl discusses the significant potential of crash prevention technology in reducing road accidents, highlighting a study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) which suggests that if all vehicles were equipped with advanced safety features like automatic emergency braking, forward collision warnings, lane departure warnings, blind spot detection, and rear cross-traffic alerts, up to 37% of crashes could be prevented. Despite the technology's promise, there's debate over the implementation roadmap, including concerns about cost, effectiveness in real-world conditions, and the need for standardization across different vehicle manufacturers. The article also touches on the ongoing discussions about whether these technologies should be mandated by law or left to market forces, with some experts advocating for a phased approach to allow for technological improvements and cost reductions over time.
