The Problem In Short:
• Car accidents have become one of the most modern world’s serious issues.
• Israel is ranked 2nd in the world with the highest car accident rate per year.

Fatal accident rates around the world
Death cases per 100,000 vehicles

The Loop
In order to get experience they need to drive frequently.
The primary cause of accidents involving young drivers is lack of experience
If they drive frequently the chances of having an accident are higher
Young drivers are more frequently involved in accidents
Technion – Israel Institute of Technology,Department of Mechanical EngineeringRobotics Laboratory
Driver’s involvement in ‘self - inflicted accidents’ Age distributed
Youngsters lead in self-inflicted accident involvement
Self inflicted Accidents (%)
Accidents (%)

IBM Reveals Five Innovations that Will Change Our Lives Over the Next Five Years
• The way you drive will be completely different: In the next five years, a coming wave of connectivity between cars and the road is going to change the way you drive, help keep you safe, and even keep you out of traffic jams. Technology is poised to keep traffic moving, cut pollution, curb accidents, and make it easier for you to get from point A to B, without the stress. The cities you live in will find a cure for congestion using intelligent traffic systems that can make real-time adjustments to traffic lights and divert traffic to alternate routes with ease.

IBM Reveals Five Innovations that Will Change Our Lives Over the Next Five Years
• Your car will have driver-assist technologies that will make it possible for automobiles to communicate with each other and with sensors along the road -- allowing them to behave as if they have 'reflexes' so they can take preventive actions under dangerous conditions. Your car will automatically tell you where traffic is jammed up and find you an alternative route to take.
