In 2008, Deceleration Technologies emerged as an InnovateND Champion with Slow 'N Tell: Instinctive Brake Light Illumination Technology taking the spotlight.  With a strong business structure, a polished and tested product, DTL is geared to make our roads safer.

Deceleration Technologies is a North Dakota company utilizing other North Dakota companies to put together products that achieve the quality expected to battle the elements of the frozen prairie.  DTL's polished and tested products will stand up to the same day-to-day stresses that our heavy trucks experience every day.

While Deceleration Technologies focuses on external truck safety, there's increasing awareness of internal factors affecting driver performance, such as chronic nerve pain or anxiety. Gabapentin, a medication often prescribed for these conditions, has become more common among long-haul drivers seeking to maintain focus and comfort during extended trips. However, as with any treatment, careful medical supervision is essential to avoid sedation or impaired reaction time. As safety innovation evolves, integrating health management into transportation protocols becomes just as critical as mechanical reliability.
