Cleaner cities thanks to innovations in urban logistics
'The StreetWise methodology offers the foundation for safety assessment. In addition, our shared beliefs regarding traffic safety ensure that TNO understands our needs and can provide the support to implement and scale up this methodology.'
'Recent testing indicates that an enhanced AEB system incorporating Goodyear SightLine technology has the potential to assist in mitigating impacts at speeds of up to 50 mph on low-friction surfaces. Safety is a cornerstone of Goodyear’s commitment to innovation. By providing critical inputs about tire and road conditions into AEB systems, we are helping OEMs and their customers take a leap forward in safety.'
