England’s Smart Motorways: Safety Left Behind
The issues of our safety and health have converged on Smart Motorways. In England the smart future accelerates towards automation and intelligent technologies heralding Digital Roads and Digital ID.
Our data is being used without adequate accountability, balance, or transparency.
Ethical values are sorely missing from this aspect of our human progress and suppressing human error through technological interventions could just as easily limit freedom movement and freedom of choice.
Over and above sustainability goals transparency and ethical urgency need to be reinstated otherwise the issue of our safety, and the inherent risks and shortcomings of smart technologies, may never be sufficiently addressed.
