AI Briefing

• – While the EU has seen a decline in road fatalities, the pace of progress is slow, with 2019 fatalities still above 30,000.
• – The EU's goal of halving road fatalities by 2050 is at risk due to inadequate enforcement of speed limits and insufficient investment in road safety measures.
• – Investments in safety technologies such as autonomous vehicles and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) are increasing, but their deployment is still limited.
