Samsung’s ‘Safety Truck’ Provides Drivers With a View of the Road Ahead
Samsung has created a way to provide drivers with a new view of the road. Semi-trucks can sometimes be obstacles for drivers, especially for those who become impatient about being caught behind them on the road. In an attempt to make the roads safer, Samsung has attached giant televisions to the back of a semi trailer and are currently testing their "Safety Truck."
The prototype for the truck has been tested but is not on the road just yet. The way it works is by broadcasting the road ahead by attaching a small camera on the front, which then displays the image on the back screens. The camera system even comes with a night-vision for those having to drive throughout the night.
According to the Samsung's video, "almost one person dies in a traffic accident every hour in Argentina." We all know just how reckless and distracted drivers can be, so any idea that could possibly make roads safer is something we should all be funding.
