They predict the number of road traffic accidents - which according to the World Health Organisation account for more than 1.3 million deaths and up to 50 million people injured worldwide every year - will drop drastically as a result.

他们预测，道路交通事故的数量将因此大幅下降。据世界卫生组织统计，全球每年因道路交通事故死亡的人数超过130万，受伤人数高达5000万。

Dr Dimitrios Liarokapis, a member of the research group, said: 'To have a better idea of what the future will look like, think of having Tesla-like cars that not only use sensors to scan what's around them, they can also talk to each other and exchange safety-related information about their surroundings over an area that covers several square miles.

研究小组的迪米特里奥斯·利奥卡皮斯博士说：“为了更好地了解未来会是什么样子，想想你有特斯拉那样的车，它不仅使用传感器来扫描周围，车辆之间还可以相互交流，并且交换附近几平方英里内的安全信息。”

'I'm sure anyone who has had a bad experience on frozen roads would have benefited from knowing about the dangerous conditions in advance so they could have adjusted their speed or, if possible, even avoided that route altogether. The same could be said of potholes.

“我相信任何在冰冻道路上有过糟糕经历的人都会从提前了解危险情况中受益，这样他们就可以调整车速，如果可能的话，甚至完全避开这条路线。路遇坑洞也是如此。”
