Potholes: the modern car driver’s worst enemy. How many times have YOU hit a pothole just a little too hard, eyes darting to the dashboard, hoping and praying that you don’t see that flat tire light blink on? In the U.S alone, there are reportedly 220 million flat tires that happen every year on our roadways, posing a risk to the driver and everyone around them. Flat tires aren’t the only threat: heartbreakingly, traffic accidents are the leading cause of death for both Australians and Americans under the age of 15. Despite this, it takes multiple years to gather enough data from police reports to identify an unsafe road. We need a proactive, not reactive approach to maintaining our city's traffic patterns and roads to effectively prevent further tragedy. Hello, I am your host Mike Lake and in today’s preview I will be talking with Emily Bobis, founder of Compass IoT, a road intelligence company that utilizes connected car data to better identify unsafe road or traffic conditions.
