The challenge
Fatal accidents involving trucks.
The challenge will focus on both the investigative part and preventive part of fatal accidents involving trucks.
The challenge is divided into 3 sub-questions: 1. Mirror field investigation is very difficult, how can we make this more reliable? 2. How can we target potential victims and create more awareness? 3. There are many trucks in the city centre, how can we make this safer?
The why
Why is this challenge important?
Too many (fatal) accidents have happened with trucks in the city, on average 20-25 every year. The driver's view is examined however subject to uncertainties. We need to improve the reliability of the examination. Simultaneously prevention of these kind of accidents is a priority for the municipality of Amsterdam. Together we need to create a safer environment.
The solution
What outcome are we looking for?
An overview of the first ideas after ideation phase and a more in depth elaboration of the most promising and impactfull ideas. One team will focus on improving our investigative methods and the other on preventing these type of accidents.
Expectations
What do we expect from the participants?
There will be two teams of 6-8 students. Preferably multi-disciplinary creative teams! We expect the student to challenge this problem from different (non existing & more alternative) perspectives.
