Saving Lives with Connectivity: A Plan to Accelerate V2X Deployment
As part of its commitment to reducing deaths and serious injuries on our nation’s roadways, the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) announced the Saving Lives with Connectivity: A Plan to Accelerate V2X Deployment. This plan will guide the implementation of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technologies across the nation and support USDOT’s commitment to pursue a comprehensive approach to reduce the number of roadway fatalities to zero.
This video highlights how V2X technology enhances transportation safety through communication between vehicles, road users, and infrastructure. It addresses alarming roadway fatality statistics and the potential of V2X to reduce them. With a goal of widespread deployment by 2028, the plan leverages bipartisan infrastructure law funding and partnerships. The video also covers regulatory clarity, cybersecurity, and the inclusion of vulnerable road users.
Experts from state transportation, automotive associations, and tech companies express their commitment to advancing V2X technology. They emphasize collaboration, the role of governments, and V2X’s potential to enhance road safety. The discussion also covers deployment challenges and the need for ongoing dialogue and investment.
