Devon & Cornwall Distracted Driving and Seatbelt Program Featured in a BBC News Article

Acusensus‘ partnership with Devon and Cornwall Police was recently highlighted in a BBC News article, which focuses on the impact of our road safety program. This initiative underscores the shared commitment Acusensus and Devon and Cornwall Police collectively have to improve driver behaviour and save lives on our roads.

In 2024, Devon and Cornwall Police became the first UK county to utilise Acusensus technology in the region in a long term program. This program aims to create a lasting change in behaviours to ultimately reduce road trauma. This is particularly important especially because, as highlighted in the BBC article, a significant proportion of young people aged 16 to 24 that were involved in fatal road accidents were not wearing seatbelts.

We are proud to support the UK’s Vision Zero initiative, committing to zero deaths and serious injuries across the road network. We look forward to continuing to work with our partners in the UK to work towards changing behaviours and saving lives.
