[quote user="BaltACD"]Do we need to develop technology that this incident (which probably happens daily somewhere in the US) doesn't happen again?[/quote] You don't need to develop a technology there is already one. It is called Advanced Emergency Brake Assit. It monitors the distance to in front driving vehicles and brakes automatically if needed. <a href="https://youtu.be/JPIg42pQ1f0">https://youtu.be/JPIg42pQ1f0</a>  or <a href="https://youtu.be/8Q5tVnzJj_s">https://youtu.be/8Q5tVnzJj_s</a> It is mandatory in new trucks in the European Union since November 2015. It is a longterm solution as older truck don't need have to be re-equipped yet. [quote user="BaltACD"]We have 40K highway deaths a year! Which is the bigger problem to society - highway accidents or railroad accidents?[/quote] Why weighing highway accidents and railroad accidents against each other. Each accidident casualty is one to many. Or better wait until the according rule/mandate is written with enough blood? With some foresight a lot of blood doesn't need to be shed or could have been spared in the past, I think. Regards, Volker
