Speed was a factor in 59% of UK road deaths last year — nearly 1,000 lives lost. “Autonomous vehicles like Waymo could improve road safety because, quite simply, the human driver is removed.” — James Gibson, @Road_Safety_GB #RoadSafetyWeek @Brakecharity

This #RoadSafetyWeek, we’re joining @Brakecharity to raise awareness of tech that can help prevent crashes and save lives. Each day, 5 people die on UK roads. Dr. Suzy Charman of Road Safety Foundation said: “Waymo won’t drive drunk, text, or get tired."
