Volvo adds vehicle-to-vehicle hazard alerts for animals and road users

The system allows Volvo cars to automatically detect and share road hazards — such as animals or vulnerable road users — with other vehicles in the fleet. Unlike crowdsourced tools such as Google Maps or Waze, the alerts rely on data collected directly from Volvo's own passenger vehicles.

The feature is currently active for Volvo fleets operating in Europe, the United States, and Canada.
