 Autoliv and POC join Forces to reduce Cyclist Head Injuries - A Helmet with an Integrated AirbagAutoliv and POC have joined forces to study and develop bicycle and e-bike helmets equipped with airbag technology to improve head protection and reduce the consequences of an impact. Head injuries alone account for half of the deadly bicyclist injuries. Although it is established that helmets are beneficial to head safety, the latest Bicycle Safety report by Swedish insurance company Folksam makes the case that helmet absorption efficiency could still be greatly improved, especially when collisions occur with a car at speeds above 20 km/h (12 mph).

On the eve of the UN General Assembly high level meeting on road safety, NCAP leaders from across the world meet in Washington to discuss a road map for safer vehicles and achieving the #50by30 goal for the UN Decade of Action.
Drivers prefer partial automation that comes with appropriate safeguards, a new survey conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety shows. "Automakers often assume that drivers want as much technology as they can get in their vehicles," says Alexandra Mueller, the survey's primary designer. "But few studies have examined actual consumer opinions about partial driving automation."
The U.S. Department of Transportation s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration finalized a 
Launched on the eve of the first UN General Assembly High Level meeting on Road Safety in New York, Global NCAP announces the results of a dramatic car to car crash test and demonstrates the double standards that apply to vehicle safety across national borders. An Hyundai Grand i10 sedan sold in Mexico has been crashed into a comparable Hyundai Accent sold in the US. Both models are the cheapest sedans from the manufacturer that consumers can buy in their respective markets.
In the last period, seven new cars were tested for safety by Euro NCAP. Amongst the five-star winners are two new cross-over SUVs, the Alfa Romeo Tonale and the latest KIA Sportage and one full electric car, the Cupra Born. MPV partner models Mercedes-Benz T-Class and Mercedes-Benz Citan Tourer also qualified for five stars. Finally, the Toyota s Aygo X supermini and BMW s all-electric i4 earned four stars.

An international success story celebrates its birthday: In 20 years, VIRTUAL VEHICLE has developed into a central player in Europe for Green Digital Mobility. In the meantime, VIRTUAL VEHICLE is Europe s largest research centre for virtual vehicle development in the automotive and rail sectors; its proven success forms an ideal foundation for research into sustainable mobility: digital rail systems, automated and climate-neutral mobility.
New models of car, van, lorry and bus launched on to the EU/EEA market since 6 July 2022 must be fitted as standard with an array of new vehicle safety technologies. The European Transport Safety Council welcomes this milestone but says standards for two of the new technologies are too weak and need to be urgently reviewed.
Technology company Continental has made great progress in its work on technologies for human-machine interaction, intelligent intersections, special driving functions for inner-city intersections, and bottlenecks as part of the @CITY joint project for automated driving in cities. A total of 15 companies, universities and research institutes, supported by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection, were involved in @CITY.
The UN Road Safety Fund is proud to support the UN High-level Meeting on Global Road Safety and hosted its first pledging event on 30 June 2022 at the UN Headquarters in New York. In total, 16 partners pledged over US$ 15 million to fund vital road safety projects in low- and middle-income countries during 2022-2025. Countries including Armenia, Iran, Jamaica, Kenya, Nepal and Qatar have added their voices to the call for increased financing to the Fund.
The federal government should expedite plans to require speed limiters on large trucks and extend the requirement to medium-duty trucks, IIHS urged in a recent regulatory comment. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) requested comments on a proposal to require devices that limit the top speed on commercial vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating over 26,000 pounds. A specific top speed would be determined later in the rulemaking process.
Ahead of the Fourth of July holiday, often one of the deadliest on the nation s roadways, the National Transportation Safety Board completed a comprehensive review of its recommendations to all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia aimed at combatting alcohol-impaired driving. The effort reveals a troubling lack of action over the past decade.
