Henry is watching
Detroit Fee Press:
Ford Motor Co. has begun a two-state project to help reduce traffic jams and inform drivers of bad weather in real time -- potentially preventing accidents and reducing commutes by as much as 50 percent.
The experiment is intended to turn vehicles into mobile traffic-monitoring tools. They'll report their locations and speeds along with road temperatures, whether their headlights and windshield wipers are activated, even if their antilock braking systems have been used.
