Make Israel’s Roads safe: Using Blinker Reduce Accidents up to 40%

Israel's roads are not the best; the dominant driving style can rather be described as aggressive, and using turn signals (blinker, indicator) is practically unknown. No wonder that Israel has one of the highest accident and fatality rates in the OECD. Several international studies prove that consistent law enforcement is needed. And that starts with … Continue reading Make Israel’s Roads safe: Using Blinker Reduce Accidents up to 40% →

Poor Roads and Aggressive Driving causes Substantial Higher Fuel Consumption in Israel

Poor roads—with potholes, uneven surfaces, or high roughness—noticeably increase vehicle fuel consumption. An issue in Israel. The main mechanism is Pavement-Vehicle-Interaction (PVI): Uneven surfaces increase rolling resistance, lead to energy losses in tires and suspension (dissipation through vibrations), and cause more frequent braking and accelerating. The engine compensates for these losses, raising consumption. Scientific studies … Continue reading Poor Roads and Aggressive Driving causes Substantial Higher Fuel Consumption in Israel →
