But instead of warning of a looming speed trap, cars ahead would alert those behind when a forward driver has slammed on the brakes, relaying a warning of an emergency ahead.
The local papers ran photos of vehicles in lines, inching forward, with drivers on their cellphones while they held ballots out the window, as if buying burgers at a McDonald's drive-thru.
Today's decision is a vitally important step forward for drivers.
Among them are Doze Alert and the Nap Zapper, mechanisms worn behind the ear that buzz loudly if your head falls forward; the Driver-Drowsiness Alert System, which uses vehicle-mounted sensors to monitor driver behavior and deliver a warning (including light, sounds and seat vibration); and the Steering Attention Monitor that sets off an alarm when abnormal steering movement is detected.
Slowly, the car inched forward; the driver pulled a sharp left, and it swivelled from the parking space.
Moving forward, the driver app will only show the general area where the trip started and ended.
Unlike standard PC speakers that use forward-firing drivers, the four new Logitech multimedia speaker systems feature 360-Degree Sound, or omnidirectional acoustics, which creates a substantially wider sweet spot – an especially helpful feature if you often move your computer around your home or office.
Inching slowly forward, the driver tried to maneuver around the crowd and debris.
The onboard computers recorded vehicle data and video from four camera views (forward view, driver's face, foot pedals, and a wide-angle in-cab view) at 30 Hz.
Controls on the dashboard move the pedals closer to the driver -- or forward, for taller drivers -- by up to about three inches.
