The state of the art is developing so fast that in reality it's impossible to say where we'll be in 10 years' time, says the Managing Director of Traficon. In his opinion making firm predictions even five years out is too ambitious, whereas

They often appear far more upset that the information system does not give them an update on road conditions, train services or bus arrival times than they are about the a
