I don't know if that is a good idea, or it might cost a lot of money to our average consumers on the automobile market. It seems that sometimes people are driving in extremely fast speed and they didn't realize it, or they might getting too close to each other while driving. Those incidents might easily cause accidents on the road. I think those auto manufacturers can install so kind of radar on each car, and they can communicate with each other. If a car getting behind getting too close, it should slow it down automatically or notify the driver you are too close to the car in front of you. Do you think that might be a good idea to avoid those accidents?

Personally there are many times when a thing like this would be nice, but I doubt like on some of the TV Shows like Knight Rider, etc., this is something that we will ever see. Often times I would think it is just wise for people to pay more attention to their driving habits, and not speed or drive too close in case you have to SLOW down suddenly, etc. And when you are at fault in an accident, the higher Insurance costs, and repair costs on the cars are not worth it as well.

That would be a great idea. The insurance companies would take a huge loss though and they may go out of business. I would not mind though as long as it stopped accidents and saved lives.
