According to statistics from the Ministry of Public Security, by the end of September 2023, China’s private car ownership has reached 430 million vehicles, with over 500 million drivers. As a result, there is an increase in accidents.
China is once again the country with the highest number of traffic accident casualties in the world. Publicly available data may be diluted, but last year China recorded over 61,000 deaths due to traffic accidents. The majority of these accidents were caused by factors such as fatigue, speeding, and failure to comply with traffic regulations.
How can we effectively reduce the number of deaths caused by traffic accidents? Many experts in the industry are hopeful for autonomous driving. Recently, William Li from NIO mentioned during his participation in Tencent News’ 20th anniversary special planning event that there will be zero accidents in cars 20 years from now.
William Li said: “What will be different about cars in 20 years compared to now? My answer can be summarized as 0, 0, and 100.”
