The announcement occurred within the framework of the UN’s Seventh World Road Safety Week, which was held from May 15 to 21.
The program was developed to improve road safety by providing state-of-the-art hardware and software that offers vehicles better blind spot detection and visibility.
The goal of the program is to improve safety not only for drivers, but also for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists.

What will the Grupo Modelo fleet be like?
Grupo Modelo joins the New York Municipal Department of Administrative Services (DCAS) for this purpose.

Each program participant will select 10 vehicles to retrofit with the “Truck of the Future” hardware and software.
