They are working on car's that talk to each other, To prevent accidents, They allready have blind space sensors, Dodge has adaptive cruise that will apply the brake's if you get too close to the car in front of you when cruise is in use, Believe it or not :!: :!: Or you could always get married and have one in the passenger seat :!: :!: :lol:

More tech intrusions. If you text or read while you drive, people shouldn't drive. If a car has traction control b/c of HP & potential over-driving, then they should not by the Rousch, Shelby or Vette, etc... they should get a Prius. I bet the voice command is Hilary Clinton or Pelosi's voice???
