Bearing in mind the Europe-wide challenges and R&D programmes relative to road safety, and in the light of the success of the first V.I.S.I.O.N. congress in September 2002, we and our other partners – vehicle and equipment manufacturers, research organisations and public authorities – have decided to repeat this event by organizing a 10^th event on 7-8 October 2020 in Paris, France.

Considering the number and severity of accidents occurring at night and/or in poor weather conditions, it is now necessary to re-examine their causes and the possible ways of improving safety, with the support of the world’s top authorities in the field.

The International SIA VISION Congress will also attempt to promote methods of bringing about significant reductions in the risks faced and to improve driver and pedestrian safety in such poor conditions.

This 10^th Congress organised by the French Society of Automotive Engineers (SIA) will be held at Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie in Paris and will bring together the major players in the fields affected by such problems.
In addition, night driving trials will be carried out on proving grounds at Mortefontaine facilities to demonstrate the many recent innovations and to enable assessment of their effectiveness in improving safety.

We look forward to receiving your abstracts for this great new edition!
Yours sincerely,

Hector Fratty
Chairman of SIA VISION 2020 International Congress
