| Amazon
is investing $200 million in new transportation safety technology in
2023, part of the company's continuing work to ensure Amazon vehicles
and delivery partners are safe on the roads. The technology—along with
innovations from industry partners—aims to reduce crash
frequency and severity. Amazon
is working toward the goals outlined in the U.S. Department of
Transportation's National Roadway Safety Strategy. Here are a few
examples of the tech-based safety solutions: -
Amazon's
middle mile trucking network is equipped with leading technology:
Automatic emergency braking, front-collision warning, stability control,
lane-departure warning, side-object detection, adaptive cruise control,
and speed limiters. -
Amazon
is investing to expand in-vehicle camera safety technology across its
last mile delivery network, which is proven to help reduce unsafe
behavior in real time. -
Amazon
is piloting cutting-edge technologies in the transportation space, such
as digital side mirrors that reduce blind spots and strobing brake
lights to provide greater visibility to other drivers on the road. The
break light technology has the potential to reduce rear-end crashes by
as much as 30%.
