Probably because people are tired or drunk. Thermal Imaging won't fix that.

Cadillac and Mercedes have had thermal cameras on their cars since the early 2000s. There is probably enough data from their vehicles to see if this technology actually helps reduce collisions at night.

Anyone remember those Cadillacs that had thermal night vision?
