Title: V2V, V2I
Post by: giantkiller on January 10, 2017, 08:53:04 AM
Mandated V2V, and soon v2i. Wow. Should let the texters pay even less attention. Dummy up the driver even more so they pay even less attention...  Soon we'll just lay there and enjoy our virtual life.

Instead of Living the real one we are blessed with.

OK rant done.

I'm sorry. The DOT is going to mandate vehicle to vehicle communication. So that people who already don't pay attention. Can get warnings from their cars when they are going to crash.. And soon vehicle to infrastructure. To get information... But I'm sure it will be used for many Big brother activities.

hopefully in the future this will speed up traffic flow on the multi-lane roads and leave the twisty two laners free for the FJ's!

Yep, reminds me of a movie I saw with my granddaughters
