Why RoadX
Why RoadX transportation impacts us all
Why RoadX “USDOT predicts that nearly 80% of unimpaired accidents could be reduced or eliminated with full implementation of Connected Vehicle technology...” Moreover… A new study by Columbia University predicts that “Autonomous cars could nearly quadruple highway capacity”
Why RoadX • Connected Vehicle – Communicates • Automated Vehicle – Isolated operation • Autonomous Vehicle – Self-driving
Why RoadX
Why RoadX Disruptive Technology - A disruptive technology is one that displaces an established technology and shakes up the industry or a ground-breaking product that creates a completely new industry. Is a Modern Vehicle a Disruptive Technology?
