TCAS is definitely useful but it's not be-all end-all in collision avoidance, and unfortunately I think that translates well to automobiles as well. There's always the possibility of failure with the devices or perhaps sending erroneous(perhaps malicious) data that could screw with the system in other people's cares.
That said, I do like seeing these kinds of innovations!
