• Abstract:
  Connected vehicles use dedicated short-range communication, GPS, and other wireless technologies to share information about their speed, position, direction, brake status, and more. The vehicle information shared will not identify the vehicle or the driver, but it will result in the generation of a robust amount of data about how, when, and where our vehicles travel-information that could be used to develop new and innovative apps to make our roads safer and less congested. Aftermarket devices with many of the same applications as new cars will be available for older vehicles.
