The cost of deploying Solar Cats Eyes is rapidly
recovered with the prevention of just one serious
injury. The prevention of just one fatality normally
pays for over thirty new installations in the first
year of operation.
Total cost of road accidents in 2002 = €728
million Estimated cost of a fatal accident is €1.35
million Estimated cost of a car accident injury
is €168,000
Saving just one life recoups the cost of installation:
LED's focus the driver's attention to a point before
the hazard, ensuring approach speed is adjusted
and lane discipline observed prior to reaching the
hazard, in this case a sweeping right-hand bend.
