7695 Icoms Detections will use Intertraffic Amsterdam to launch the ITVP2, a new radar that simulates two virtual loops for both approaching and stop-line detection.

Icoms says the device provides accuracy above 97% and is simple to install: there is no software needed to set up the two detector zones.

Raising allowable truck weight limits improve transport efficiency but leaves an ever-increasing number of bridges vulnerable to being overloaded and damaged by vehicles heavier, and in some cases far heavier, than they were designed to carry. The simplistic solution is to impose weight restrictions and erect appropriate signs - but this could have severe knock-on effect on trucking operations

Israel ranks alongside countries such as the US and France in the road safety stakes, with an average 7.1 deaths per billion kilometres driven. But at that point the similarities end, as the country’s overriding issue is pedestrian safety. This is driven by several factors, including being a relatively small country where pe
