Enhancing Safety: Coast Guard's New Radar System Monitors Busy Shipping Lanes

The video discusses Dover's busy shipping lane and the new computerized radar system that monitors ship traffic to prevent collisions and pollution. The system tracks ships in real-time, providing the Coast Guard with vital information. Ships must report their position and destination when entering high-density zones, and the Coast Guard can prosecute non-compliant vessels. The system has already reduced fatalities by 35% in four years, and further improvements are expected.
