"As well as increasing collision severity, higher bonnets reduce vision, particularly of children. Reduced driver vision risks increasing the frequency of collisions, and / or near miss situations.

Children are disproportionately killed as pedestrians in road traffic collisions."

"High bonnets strike pedestrians higher up in the body, often hitting vital organs near the core, before knocking them forward and down, with a higher risk of driving over them."

"The respective figures for average bonnet height rise from 2010 to 2024 in the six countries shown in the graph below are as follows: France (77.3 to 84.3 cm), Germany (76.5 to 82.3 cm), Italy (76.3 to 84.7 cm), Poland (77.0 to 82.6 cm), Spain (77.5 to 83.8 cm), and the UK (76.9 to 83.7 cm)."

“Traditional buttons, dials, and levers had perceptible and actionable qualities—you could feel for them, adjust them without looking, and rely on muscle memory. A touchscreen obliterates this"

The results of the Global Risks Perception Survey (Global Risks Report 2025 - World Economic Forum), highlight that extreme weather events are ranked as the highest global risk in the long term (10 years), while misinformation and disinformation are the top risks in the short term (2 years).

L'abaissement de la vitesse à 50 km/h sur le périph' à Paris en octobre semble avoir un impact positif sur la congestion, les accidents, le bruit et la qualité de l’air selon l’Atelier parisien d’urbanisme : www.apur.org/fr/nos-trava...

À valider dans le temps et l'espace mais encourageant!

The lowering of the speed limit to 50 km/h on the Paris ring road in October seems to have had a positive impact on congestion, accidents, noise and air quality, according to the Atelier parisien d'urbanisme : www.apur.org/fr/nos-trava... (FR)

To be validated with time and space, but encouraging!
