On a global scale, the cost of transport system-related crashes is greater than $870 Billion (US) per annum, with 1.25 million deaths per year. In both developed and developing countries, the loss of life and number of critical injuries is staggering and unacceptable. Efforts to improve road safety in developed countries have largely plateaued over the past decade, emphasizing the need for new and innovative capability for solving this global health problem. In many developed countries, transport system related crashes are the leading cause of death for people under the age of 24, and a top 10 leading cause of death overall.
The current global state of practice in quantitative road safety management is reactive in nature; people are injured and killed on the transport network prior to problems being quantified and road safety improvements justified. Moreover, road safety management practice has not taken full advantage of significant improvements in technological advances. AMAG Co-Founders have combined their 70+ experience in road safety with advanced technologies to develop and deliver a DP4RS for improved management of transport network operations and risk. AMAG technology makes use of video analytics, AI, Deep Learning, and complex empirical, local relationships between road accidents and serious and critical conflicts to manage transport network risk.
