By air and by land, S2E2

from Engineering Out Loud · host Engineering Out Loud

In part one, we'll uncover the extreme challenges of air travel for people with disabilities, the risky measures they take in order to fly, and the serious harm they face every time they board an aircraft. And we'll meet Associate Professor Katharine Hunter-Zaworski who, for more than three decades, has been is fighting to remove barriers and improve access to transportation for people with disabilities.   By observing crashes, researchers can make recommendations on how to prevent them and ultimately make roads safer for more users. Crashes, however, are difficult to predict and to observe. In part two, we tour the Driving and Bicycling Simulator where Associate Professor David Hurwitz conducts experiments on right-hook crashes in a virtual environment.  BONUS MATERIAL Skytrain Accessible Lavatories Working Group Oregon State's Driving and Bicycling Simulator Facilities https://engineering.oregonstate.edu/season-2-engineering-inclusivity/air-and-land-s2e2
