I’ve noticed a trend in these videos. Your channel primarily looks at the new ways problems are being addressed and not necessarily how you or the census population believes they should be solved. This is good because problems are addressed in different ways based on people’s relation and means. However, I think it would do your channel good to focus on how ideas that the people WANT to see happen are being implemented. For example, most people are not interested in high tech solutions to car crashes (with the exception of self-driving cars) because they can’t be distributed as evenly as other technologies can. However, many people are interested in roundabouts, speed limits, new road system designs, addressing alcohol consumption, and of course high speed rails. Just something to consider. Again, this channel is a GEM, and i watch all your videos once I get that notification.
Thanks so much for your feedback and for watching, we really appreciate it! It is true, we do try to tell the stories of people attempting to solve problems in new and different ways. Perhaps framing more videos from a problem-first perspective that looks at all potential solutions could be a good approach--thank you for the suggestion!
Look into how the Dutch road design and accident data; they live in a high density area but with low accidents (pedestrian / bicycle vs auto). Sometimes it's not just tech, it's the design of roads, infrastructures and transport culture.
Yeah, absolutely. Not Dutch but we went to Copenhagen to look at some of their mobility infrastructure. Would love to look at Dutch cities as well sometime. th-cam.com/video/pUbHGI-kHsU/w-d-xo.html
Yes car ms connected can stop crashes, but more effective ways is lower speed limits in certain areas, higher in others, timing, and human element (alcohol for example). But yes data, analytics, ai, and more are definitely a necessity.
Title answer: NO, no time soon. The current mainstream cars sold with AI and sensors galore suck and literally cause accidents, alerts for everything and nothing, scares driver, gets tricked easily by simple gitches or spray paint on signs, etc. I have ZERO desire to live in a world that I can't drive a car myself, can't have a true manual, and therefore there's NO way I will trust or allow a city where it controls my life. Or where my 'ride' can be controlled, rationed, surveilled, or shut down by the gov, or rich turd, hacker, etc.
@@freethink I know and thank you for that!!! My apologies, between the Great Reset, 4th Industrial Revolution rollout and my car causing issues from horrible AI/sensors, I vocalized off topic! Its not that I'm against the idea of a super cool and eco-friendly futuristic lifestyle, but HOW it's being developed, rolled out, citizens impacted, etc I don't like. So the video is a fantastic conversation that needs to be had 100% from engineering aspects. My passion stems from me being the type that wants to: hold onto farmlands and old ways, while embracing some modern conveniences and being forward-thinking.
Lots of data gathering and analysis to provide insight into preventative measures, but the root cause of the problem is not being addressed. Specifically, that the human element of transport is still involved. If the human remains as the primary controller of the vehicle, then problem will persist and all other efforts are simply a patchwork of preventative measures. Pretty models and data will not remove the root cause of infallible humans.
We're definitely excited about the potential for self-driving cars! (see th-cam.com/video/mm-oqWCwzfE/w-d-xo.html ). That said, there's certainly more and less dangerous streets around the world and every life saved is a valuable one!
@@freethink The issue here is that Ford's efforts here appear to be disingenuous and half-hearted since this data study appears aimed at perpetuating the need for a human driver, and does not yet recognize the need for a dramatic shift to an alternative control mechanism. Perhaps this is a transitional requirement, but there was no mention of a shift away from human control in this video.
@@Obscurai Why can't we make the roads influence the state of mind of the driver. Like the streets in bright blue, what is the factor there that makes people drive safer and have a cognitive presence of mind, we can apply those principles to the hotspots. Surely, the impact won't be as significant as a shift into a different control mechanism but it makes a tremendous impact
If humans can do safe distancing, why not cars? I've always imagined cars that could detect the nearest cars and regulate their speed limits accordingly. Of course this is a wild pipedream but if can be done, no one will die from car crashes.
Do you think this technology can make our streets safer?
Definitely and kudos for your channel and high quality content.
Yes love

The illusion of safety at the low price of fun and freedom.

Good point, we shouldn't overlook basic solutions to make our streets safer!
Maybe make it harder to get a drivers license, and have people retake their test every 5 years and you could fix all this
Instead they trynna use it as an excuse to track us lmao
The background music at 1:40 is distracting
Hope you weren't watching while you drove

For what it's worth, the idea here is for the data to help city better design streets, not for the car to behave differently.

How about you put some sensors on my bike and record and track how many drivers pass too close to me during my commute to/from work every day!
Sounds like a good idea tbh!
Connected Means Autonomous! Love It!
Its like saying "kick humans away from a city to stop crime" No good comes from anything connected

Interesting how much data large companies take from us
Interesting how much data people voluntarily hand over to large companies
At the expense of privacy. And also I'm thinking some ctOS type situation, cars decide who lives based on priority.
Hey, if car are getting crash proof with each other becuase they talk between each other. Can we atleast increase the speed to like 185mph?
And roundabout helps!
That's true! www.autoblog.com/2011/02/23/roundabouts-reduce-accidents/
If you want safer streets, look at how traffic is controlled in the Netherlands.
Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety
If cars least longer . People wouldn’t buy every year new ones
People are buying new cars every year? We gotta buy less avocado toast
If humans can do safe distancing, why not cars?

There is actually a video on you tube on this
They're not near misses. If they didn't crash, they ARE misses. Near crashes, perhaps.
Kinda sounds like a way of convincing you that the govt should be allowed to track you wherever you go
ctOS
