According to her, it is better to focus on innovations that allow the car to support the driver, rather than completely replace the driver. “Examples include emergency braking systems, lane keep assist, and blind spot detection. Until now, these systems have focused primarily on driver and passenger safety. It is time to use these technologies to make vehicles safer and more attractive to other road users and their environment.”
Smart speed assist
For example, the technology can restrict drivers' use of smartphones, but it can also detect fatigue and alcohol consumption. Spapé is also a big supporter of the controversial Intelligent Speed Assist (ISA). “Intelligent speed assistance, which automatically limits the speed of vehicles in accident-prone locations such as the city center and around schools, could provide a breakthrough. Trials are currently underway in Amsterdam to automatically limit the speed of e-bikes.” This may provide a prelude to a broader mandatory application of this alternative, also for cars, “Sabi is finished.
