So then what happens? This has huge potential for abuse by MANY!
The Lexus is instructed by the Cadillac to slow down?
If the Caddie can’t control the Lexus speed or distance, does it report the Lexus to the nearest cop?
Does it have a camera connected the program managing all of this? Is there a record that can be tied with the picture, or does it just “capture” the Lexus VIN?
Does all this stand up in court as evidence in the event of a “crash”? Why don’t we just have the Caddie driver drive our rig too, then there won’t be any problems.
Hey I’m really glad the feds have solved the problems of unemployment, border security, health reform, terrorism, homelessness, failing banks/cities/states, drug abuse, a crumbling infrastructure, ad nauseum the have the Dept of Trans spend fed funds (OUR MONEY) to develop talking cars. Beam me up , Scotty –
This comment isn’t even necessary, everyone has already hit the crucial points. Obviously the possibility of complete remote control over our vehicles pushed through “safety” or “convenience” features such as OnStar isn’t enough for Big Brother. Sickens me.
How about a competition to see what “every-man” can come up with the best idea(s) to reduce the national debt to a manageable level? A competition for fresh ideas for our floundering healthcare system could follow shortly after. It doesn’t seem like they’re as willing to let us inject any wisdom into a field which is SUPPOSEDLY their expertise. If they did, maybe people would start to see how foolish many of the government’s choices are.
Not sure if this is a bad thing if it makes the roads safer. I do think it should be left to the private sector to develop and keep the government out of it.
I wonder if they will be able to tell if you’ve been drinking and not let the car start?
Could have a lot of privacy issues that’s for sure.
Hey Honda Civic is that you heading to Mexico, and where’s your owner?
Hey Ford is that you or ObamaMotors? What, you’re in the automotive union and you believe in secret voting ballots…so what’s your name son?

Hopefully the software will be more reliable than the current MS operating systems.

it could have been —
“sweetheart whose garage are we going to?”
she states, “honey are you ready to have hot wheels?”
This is so rubbish.
