Leading Road Safety Technology Company Brigade Electronics Joins Together for Safer Roads to Advance Commercial Vehicle Safety
Brigade’s pioneering blind zone detection technology and industry expertise will further TSR’s work to support fleets worldwide
New York, NY (May 21, 2025) — Together for Safer Roads (TSR), a global NGO dedicated to building cross-sector partnerships to improve fleet trucking safety, today announced Brigade Electronics as its newest member. A leader in commercial vehicle safety technology, Brigade Electronics brings decades of innovation and experience in blind zone awareness, 360 camera monitor systems, radar detection and direct vision safety solutions to the TSR member network and beyond.
Brigade Electronics was an early, foundational partner in the implementation of TSR member Transport for London’s (TfL) Direct Vision Standard, a groundbreaking regulatory initiative aimed at reducing fatal blind zone collisions in urban environments. This aligns with TSR’s comprehensive Direct Vision program approach, supporting both better designed vehicles and after-market safety technologies as the best path forward to address and reduce crashes related to blind zones.
“Brigade Electronics has long been a leader in commercial vehicle safety innovation, particularly around blind zone mitigation and direct vision — two areas that are absolutely central to TSR’s work,” said Peter Goldwasser, Executive Director of Together for Safer Roads. “Their technology has helped shape global best practices, and we’re excited to collaborate with them and our other members to continue working toward safer roads and safer fleets.”
As a TSR member, Brigade will contribute to a variety of the organization’s key initiatives, including the Direct Vision Leadership Council and our Truck of the Future pilot program ecosystem. Their technology, coupled with expertise in both retrofitting existing fleets and supporting OEMs with the development of integrated safety systems, will be an asset to municipal, commercial, and global fleet operators alike.
“We’re proud to welcome Brigade Electronics into our coalition of companies committed to reducing traffic crashes and fatalities through innovation and collaboration,” said Andres Peñate, Global Vice President of Corporate Affairs at AB InBev and Chair of TSR’s Board of Directors. “Brigade’s long-standing leadership in safety technology perfectly complements TSR’s vision for safer fleet operations around the world.”
“At Brigade Electronics, our mission has always been to make roads and worksites safer through cutting-edge vehicle safety technology,” said Corey Heniser, Chief Executive Officer at Brigade Electronics. “Joining Together for Safer Roads is a natural extension of that mission, and we are proud to collaborate with a global network of leaders committed to reducing traffic-related injuries and fatalities. As early partners in the Direct Vision Standard scheme with Transport for London, we’ve seen firsthand how innovation and cross-sector partnerships can drive meaningful change. We look forward to advancing that work with TSR and its members.”
As road safety gains urgency across public and private sectors, companies like Brigade are helping define the path forward — one that’s grounded in proven technology, global cooperation, and collaboration with public and private fleet operators.
