Driving Safe Advancement of Public Transit Technology

What if you could make public transit safer?
Is there room to improve safety for drivers, passengers, pedestrians, and all others sharing the road? Yes, and this is why New Flyer recently launched its Automated Vehicle (AV) Technology Program, and also announced its partnership with Robotic Research to develop and deploy Advanced Driver Assistance-Systems (ADAS) technology.

How will technology improve safety?
Using IoT and V2I technology, New Flyer's AV program is specifically focused on improving safety in transit and adhering to SAE J3016 definitions for Levels of Driving Automation. In partnership with Robotic Research, New Flyer will pursue the development of SAE J3016 Level 4 technology on its Xcelsior CHARGE™ battery-electric bus. As a long-term pioneer of transit innovation, New Flyer's AV pursuit is one of many recent initiatives that will improve safety for millions of passengers who rely on it every day.
