Professor Yosef Pershkar from the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Technion, was appointed as the Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Transportation. This was announced today by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transportation, Shaul Mofaz, during a visit to the Technion.

Professor Parshkar, a global expert in the field of transportation and road safety, previously served as the head of the Transportation Research Institute at the Technion.

In his remarks at a conference on road safety, held at the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering in collaboration with the Transportation Research Institute and the "Green Light" association, the minister announced that his ministry intends to soon task private entities with paving more toll roads such as Route 6, since the government does not have the necessary budgets for the development of the necessary infrastructure for Israel. He also said that in the coming weeks, the confiscation of vehicles whose drivers enter an intersection with a red light will be enshrined in legislation.

  1. Chaim - I'm sure you worked a lot on your method. I have a question for you: Is the method practical and do you intend to implement it and spread it, or is it only to present a principle?

  2. How is he preparing to set up an entrance to a red light.
    Is it a car that rear-ended, therefore part of its time was red light traffic, or driving behind a truck that slowed down at the intersection and turned left (or right) and blocked the field of vision.
    The settings must only be if the trip was in a situation that endangers the other drivers, such as entering at an unreasonable speed, etc.
    By the way, we are a group of engineers who developed a signposted intersection with the addition of traffic components based on the existing traffic laws, in the simulation we conducted, the chance of an accident tends to 0.
    The method will be disclosed after the patent registration is completed.
