Rex Colorado profiled in Mass Transit magazine
Safety Vision’s Mark (“Rex Colorado”) Sahinen recently appeared in Mass Transit magazine’s “Executive Predictions 2008.” Here, international transit industry leaders shared their expectations about what the coming year would bring, industry wide.Improved technologies, increased government funding, and growing ridership were among the recurring upbeat topics. And, the industry experts concur, public acceptance of transit as an appealing transportation option is decidedly up, with bus rapid transit (BRT) emerging as one attractive alternative. Increasing awareness of environmental issues such as climate change is partially driving this trend, as is the bite citizens are feeling at the gas pump. On the down side are cost concerns: rising fuel and raw materials costs, higher capital project costs, and growing operational costs.
Certain future needs were identified, as well: the need to consider alternative fuels, to shorten project cycle times, to introduce standardized and integrated technology solutions, faster. (Safety Vision’s mobile digital video recorders [mobile DVRs] are an integral component of the transit industry’s safety and security solutions.) But overall, this public service industry is perceived to be on an upswing.
Rex Colorado was a likely expert for Mass Transit to target. One of Safety Vision’s first employees, in 2008 Colorado was on hand to help the company celebrate its 15th year in the mobile video industry. Originally a provider of rear vision cameras for increased fleet driver safety, the company now also provides school bus cameras and in-car patrol recorders to protect students, drivers, and law enforcement personnel as well as onboard cameras and mobile DRVs to increase public transit safety and security.
