Smart vehicles have minds of their own
Article Abstract:
Intelligent transportation systems are slowly becoming a reality with the increased use of collision avoidance systems in heavy trucks.

The system's computer interprets the signal to determine the vehicle's distance and speed. A tone or flashing light is used to alert the driver of an impending collision.
