Strong set of results from Xilinx

"Despite our fiscal 2020 being uniquely challenging, particularly related to the US trade-related restrictions with Huawei as well as some COVID-19 impact during our Q4, we were able to deliver another record year with revenue of $3.16 billion, a 3% increase over fiscal 2019," CEO Victor Peng said in a statement. "The strength and diversity of our business were reflected in the results of our fiscal fourth quarter with strong sequential growth in both revenue and profitability."

I'm not sure LIF, I have seen a few articles about pent up demand for cars once we return to normal.

I can understand the mentality of wanting to be in your own private space rather than squashed into public transport, some people in some parts of the country will of course have no option.

Personally one of the things I'm missing during lockdown is driving my car

This is the equivalent of a driver in the 1970's /80's saying "I find the 5 pints of beer makes it harder to concentrate"

These stats are crazy, clearly legislation is the only answer

"Social media and surfing the net is the most severe distraction, with 71% of commercial drivers finding it distracting.
Video and FaceTime chatting while driving is considered the second most severe distraction, with 68% of commercial drivers finding it distracting."

Good to see a focus on human factors

"GDV, notably the German Insurers Accident Research Unit (UDV), aims to improve road safety in Germany and helps to prevent accidents or at least mitigate the effects of crashes. By providing up to date accident data and the outcome of safety research, UDV supports Euro NCAP’s protocol development and long-term strategy, especially regarding the human factors and driving functions for assisted and automated vehicles.

Fleet drivers are “facing unprecedented risks due to anxiety and #fatigue” as they deliver essential items during our current crisis. For support, resources like risk management courses are available to help managers and drivers, but it’s also important for fleet managers to monitor driver behaviour to understand what support is needed for each driver. #roadsafety #drivermonitoring https://bit.ly/3buAEDO (via Fleet Europe)

I think this question has been answered by NCAP and the EU commission, if Volvo want to call themselves pioneers they need to crack on, video in the article is worth a watch also.

"We want to start a conversation about whether car makers have the right or maybe even an obligation to install technology in cars that changes their driver´s behaviour, to tackle things like speeding, intoxication or distraction,' Mr Samuelsson added.

'We don’t have a firm answer to this question, but believe we should take leadership in the discussion and be a pioneer.'"

Nearly choose that as my user name in 2014, but I thought it was too cheesy.

Decent article below, I remember a question from the floor at CMD to Tim Edward's regarding intoxication. I'm still if the belief we will win Volvo.

"On top of limiters, the other facet of the Vision 2020 project is the introduction of new technology to defeat two other major causes of accidents - intoxication and distraction.To do so, Volvo also plans to fit new models with in-car cameras and sensors to monitor driving behaviour.

If the technology measures that a user is unfit to be at the wheel or driving erratically it will alert them and prompt the motorist to pull over

And in the most extreme cases the technology built into Volvo cars will be able to safely bring the vehicle to a halt automatically to prevent the user causing an accident. "

Seems New Zealand and Australia are fairing better than many countries.

"If the curve continues to flatten, Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters said there is a 'serious possibility' that New Zealand could open its borders to Australia sooner than the rest of the world."
