In recent decades, new technologies in the automotive field have permanently contributed to reducing the number of accidents on the roads, but also to increasing the safety of car travel. Moreover, the symbiosis between the technical performance of the car and the ability of people to react in extreme traffic situations, to drive the car in a preventive, prudent, predictable and responsible manner becomes essential in the century of information technology.

 

After the seat belt, airbag, ABS, EBD, ESP, eCALL and other such technological innovations that have revolutionized the automotive world over time, today we are witnessing a new challenge designed to take road safety standards to a higher level and reduce the number and effects of road accidents. It is about telematics technology, a modern technique for remote transmission of information on driver behavior but also a technology with a possible wide applicability in the insurance industry.

 

In this context, the Romanian Motor Insurers' Bureau and the Institute of Financial Studies organize the Conference "Traffic safety - an achievable goal" on March 5, 2018, starting with 9:00 at the Sheraton Hotel, in Bucharest.

 

The event brings together specialists from the Financial Supervisory Authority, representatives of the insurance market and specialized state institutions.

 

The topics of debate proposed to the guests are:

• Telematics - technologies with an impact on road safety?

• How could the behavior of drivers be well influenced by telematics?

• Modern repair methods
