Advanced Technology Aimed at Stopping Highway and Intersection Accidents

--DaimlerChrysler recently demonstrated a new innovation in vehicle-to-vehicle communications that will make roads safer than ever before. Already existing Wi-Fi technology allows two vehicles or other roadside devices to directly communicate with each other over a distance of about 300 yards. The Dedicated Short Range Communications system, or DSRC, makes it possible for early warning systems to let drivers know when danger is down the road.
