ITE is part of a collaboration with organizations across North America, the University of Washington, Microsoft, and the City of Bellevue, WA, USA in asking for the public's help in a cutting-edge effort to help prevent deaths and serious injuries from traffic crashes. Called Video Analytics Towards Vision Zero, the project will tap new technologies to analyze traffic camera video footage available in many cities and use near-miss collisions to predict where future crashes are likely to occur. Traffic engineers could then take corrective action to prevent those crashes. The project's potential for saving lives is significant. In 2016, road crashes resulted in approximately 40,000 deaths and 4.6 million injuries in the US alone. For young people under age 19, these collisions were the leading cause of death.
