Another "Next best thing since sliced bread..."

Two part system...able to be retrofitted to all places where it would be applied. Built in a manner so that the cost is not burdened on the state as individuals will over time add them to their cars and manufacturers will include them as standards. It will save lives and increase productivity.

Piece number one is a sensor placed on the front of a car. The sensor sends out a signal up ahead that it is coming at all times. The sensor states the speed, direction, distance nad potentially the future movements of the vehicle. The sensor can also recieve signals and recognize what is being said. That information is then somehow communicated to the driver of the vehicle.

The second piece is located at an intersection. Either they can be hung from the current stop lights, stuck at the corners or just planted under the ground...doesnt really matter, there are many technologies in the world. The purpose of this piece is to collect the signal coming from the cars approaching the intersections and then forward that information all around to other peoples who are approaching the intersection.

What this does...it allows people to pre-emptively adjust their driving on approaches to intersections based upon data input from areas that they cannot necessarily see. As well, and this I think is of significant importance, it is a precursor to a system that will monitor intersection traffic on its own and take over your vehicle as it approaches. It will perfectly time all of the cars as they go through slightly speeding up or slowing down the vehicles as it sees fit to allow them to move through the intersection without stoplights. Again, increasing productivty as less time wil be lost in traffic, less pollution and giving to society more time. Very few investions truly give more time (even though the excess use of the car has led to this loss of time in the first place...it is truly only returning the taken time I guess...)
