The past few years have seen traffic fatalities involving bicyclists reach the highest levels ever recorded in the United States, with numbers trending in a tragic direction elsewhere. For Audi, there is no stronger clarion call to seek a solution that clearly alerts both cyclists and motorists about their proximity.

That solution is cellular vehicle-to-everything communications, or C-V2X for short, communications. Utilizing a crystal-clear channel of the wireless spectrum reserved for transportation safety, C-V2X provides safety-critical “see me, see you” messages before a collision occurs. This isn’t some distant dream, but a technology that Audi intends to explore through the Coalition for Cyclist Safety with the full cycling community, including bicycle manufacturers, their innovative suppliers and governments at all levels.
