Lol 'breaches'. I agree with other posters that you seem to be capable of network level forensics, but you have said nothing to back up what you consider a device breach other than 'some cloud destined network traffic which d

What this video also shows is that if people pull off more or less at the same time and speed of the car in front then this is a complete non issue. Unfortunately most people are unable to watch a few cars ahead and be ready to pull of when

That is a valid concern. Therefore I think artisan coders will need to rely on a combination of customisation and customer service. Their specialty will need to be very specific features which are not catered for by the usual mass code crea

Exactly, and that same theory also applies to long slow breaking as well. What you are refering to is the well known phenomenon of traffic waves or phantom jams. The UK has all but eliminated them with variable speed limits without the need

What assembly lines and factories did for other manufacturing processes is to make it feasable for any person to be able to make those things. In the past only very skilled professionals were able to create such things, but mechanisation an

TV is not 100% curated for your personal tastes based on your previous interactions. It was fine for years because it was a generic service in which everybody was forced to view the same content in the same way. They are very very different

Yeah, I agree fully with you on that point. However purposely making the cars behind you break more and causing more compression further back just so that you can avoid the compression in front of you is madness.

It seems we are talking about different things. The majority of car collisions happen on urban roads where the majority of cars are. The majority of fatal collisions occur on rural roads, where vehicles are travelling faster. I live in the

The tradeoff for the compression 'vanishing' is longer times pressing your breaks, travelling slower overall, and leaving your engine running for more of the time. Also you then just leave a bigger gap in front of you for somebody

IMO there is nothing worse than drivers on highways who think that by leaving bigger gaps and slowing less rapidly they are 'smoothing' out the traffic and helping the whole road run better. You are not, you are just making the wh

Why jump to cities? Low speed traffic in cities is not the main location of car collisions. The main issue is highways and rural roads.
