CCAT

CCAT Aiming to move Aus and NZ safely and successfully into the era of connected and automated transport.

Self-driving vehicles will make driving easier, allow people to be more productive and offer greater mobility to a wider range of people than ever before. They will also help improve road safety, reduce emissions, and ease congestion. As a result, self-driving vehicles will provide significant economic, environmental and social benefits, including improving social inclusion. The key thrust of the

Australian Driverless Vehicle Initiative is to build momentum by rapidly exploring the impacts and requirements of this new technology in a truly Australian context and making recommendations on ways to safely and successfully bring self-driving vehicles to Australian roads.

This National Road Safety Week, we acknowledge the ongoing work of road safety advocates, industry leaders, governments and communities across Australia working toward a future where everyone gets home safe.

At the Centre for Connected and Automated Transport (CCAT), we recognise the potential of connected and automated transport technologies to reduce road trauma, improve situational awareness, minimise human error and support safer outcomes for all road users.

We also acknowledge the tireless advocacy of Peter Frazer OAM and the incredible work of the SARAH Group, whose mission continues to drive important national conversations around road safety, accountability and the urgent need for action.

Peter contributed a powerful article to CCAT’s thought leadership series ‘The Commute’, exploring how connected and automated transport, data and coordinated national leadership can help build a safer future for Australia. He highlighted that “Connected and automated transport opportunities are literally at our fingertips and offer the most significant opportunity to reduce fatalities and serious injuries since the introduction of the seatbelt.”
