Basically this is tech that lets cars communicate with each other. (This is in addition to self-driving cars the industry is working on.) > US road safety legislators have outlined a plan to demand all new cars and trucks be able to intercommunicate wirelessly, with the aim of reducing car accidents through a dynamically-evolving mesh network detailing location, direction, and speed. The Vehicle-2-Vehicle (V2V) scheme revealed by the NHTSA would not, at least initially, allow cars to react independently to potential dangers out of view of their human drivers, though future iterations of the system could well tap into brake-assistance, lane-guidance, and other technologies showing up in modern vehicles. > **[US To Mandate V2V Car-To-Car Communications For Safer Roads](https://www.slashgear.com/us-to-mandate-v2v-car-to-car-communications-for-safer-roads-03315580/)** > > US road safety legislators have outlined a plan to demand all new cars and trucks be able to intercommunicate wirelessly, with the aim of reducing… Quick video: [![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/8/9/892456dd9b739afc12bafdcfdeacae4dac022d70.jpeg "Ford WiFi Vehicle to Vehicle Connectivity (V2v) Safety Demonstration") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iHCNdCV0LY) … Yeah, funny but not informative, lol.

I wonder how this would affect auto insurance? I mean, they are stating that reducing the number of accidents as a benefit of this, but this would change the whole game of writing insurance since you no longer have an 18 year old driver, phone in hand yielding a death machine that you can rate higher than a 30 year old with a full time job. ---

> [@LZ](#): > > Anything that works this easy has to be insecure > In preparation for next month’s Black Hat Asia security conference in Singapore, Javier Vazquez-Vidal and Alberto Garcia Illera have assembled a small electronic device that can leave a vehicle’s computer system open to attack. “It can take five minutes or less to hook up and then walk away,” Vidal says. It can also be built from off-the-shelf components for less than $20. > … they’ve wired the CAN Hacking Tool (named for the Controller Area Network bus it exploits) into four vehicles, and have used it to wirelessly manipulate lights, set off alarms, control power windows and even activate the vehicle’s brakes. By the time the conference starts, they hope to outfit the prototype with a GSM radio, making it possible to control vehicle’s systems from virtually anywhere. > “A car is a mini network,” Illera said. "And right now there’s no security implemented. > Toyota both brushed off Miller and Valasek’s work by pointing to the fact that their hack required physical access to the vehicle. “Our focus, and that of the entire auto industry, is to prevent hacking from a remote wireless device outside of the vehicle,” ![http://o.aolcdn.com/hss/storage/adam/76e5eeacf1eb2ce9b1081b2c20b0f460/carhacktool1.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/4/3/43cf858d2342a1b30628c90a6d45067205109a2d.jpeg) They say they’re focused on wireless, but we’ll see. ---
