Future of Cars?

On Saturday, Catharine Smith published an article for The Huffington Post about a new car system that would make driving easier, safer, and more efficient. The system works like a train of automobiles  on the highway. It's like train-cars that move in an out of the wireless system when ready. The train cars are have one professional driver in the front that controls all of the cars. This allows for all the other drivers to do basically whatever they want. You can sleep, eat, read, etc. on the way to your destination. The smarter we get, the lazier we get, but if it is safer, more efficient, and saves on resources who can complain? Stay tuned in the years to come. Sartre and Volvo are testing the system now in Europe. They are predicting it could take over ten years to get this wireless car system to run full steam.
