Lots Of New Safe Driving Technologies
from the phew dept
I've been noticing more and more stupid driving and (associated with that) more really bad car accidents lately. Thus, it's good to hear that lots of companies are coming out with safety devices for cars. Most of them use some sort of laser or radar system to see what's around the car, and help the driver to respond safely. There are also some predictions as to where these devices may go in the next few years. The one thing I worry about is whether or not this will just make drivers even more careless.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
