The 324 US Department of Transportation (US DoT) will be hosting a free public webinar on 9 August, 2012 from 1:00-5:00pm (EST) to provide updates and promote discussion on the intelligent network flow optimisation (INFLO) concept.

The programme's goal is to support the research and refinement of the INFLO bundle of applications and the potential deployment of an operational system. INFLO is a collection of high-priority transformative applications identified by the US DoT's mobility programme that relate to improving roadway throughput and reducing crashes through the use of frequently collected and rapidly disseminated multi-source data drawn from connected travellers, vehicles, and infrastructure.

    US research and education charity Frontier Centre for Public Policy has released Speed or Greed: Does Automated Traffic Enforcement Improve Safety or Generate Revenue?, a study on the effects of automated traffic enforcement (ATE). Report authors Hiroko Shimizu and Pierre Desrochers state that the decline of road fatalities by 58 per cent is largely due to better engineered vehicles, seat belts and other safety measures. Although there is little credible evidence, the report says some ATE supporters a
