ABSTRACT
PIMR realizes R&D project on implementation of modern transportation option, based on well known in USA light trucks and gooseneck trailers, but novelty is that they will be equipped with PIMR 's new electronic brake system [PEBS] and coupling device. PEBS could be mounted in trailers instead of very dangerous inertia brakes or less effective electric brakes from USA. Gooseneck trailer could be coupled with farm tractor to take goods from fields orforest to transit point and after replacing it with light truck to transport forward to other rural localities. Slow moving farm units ought to be blamed as the one of main reason of traffic slow down, collisions and fatal road accidents. New road units should replace out dated farm tractor-trailers units with unsafe brakes. New technology - better for drivers, more efficient and environmentally friendlier ought to have a great impact on road safety and sustainable growth of rural areas.
