Upcoming Course Date

Wednesday 2nd December 2026
Additional dates are available on request

Overview

This live online training provides a focused introduction to connected vehicle data, including Harsh Braking Incidents (HBIs), and how it can support proactive highway and road safety management. Participants will explore how HBI data are collected, validated, and interpreted, supported by real-world examples, modelling insights, and research drawn from Dr Kamla's PhD work and industry practice.

Learning Outcomes

Understand how harsh braking data supports proactive safety management.
