Connected vehicles can help.
They use wireless communication between vehicles and infrastructure to help prevent crashes, make travel easier, and curb pollution.

All vehicles, regardless of type, will communicate with each other using a wireless technology called Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC).

The vehicle information communicated does not identify the driver or vehicle, and technical controls have been put in place to help prevent vehicle tracking and tampering with the system.

Imagine if the cars in front of you could send you information about dangerous road conditions ahead, such as icy roads, fog, heavy rain, and snow.
