A New Approach to Auto Safety
The article proposes that insurers share hard‑braking telematics data with transportation agencies to pinpoint dangerous road segments. A Google study of ten years of crash records found a strong correlation between aggregated hard‑braking events and actual crashes, correctly flagging hotspots such as the Highway 101/Interstate 880 interchange. By leveraging near‑crash signals, authorities could intervene faster than relying on police reports, potentially reducing the U.S. traffic‑fatality rate, which remains far higher than Europe’s. The piece calls for industry‑wide data aggregation despite privacy and adoption hurdles.
