GM’s Crash Proof Cadillac
GM is looking into the future, to a world where airbags and bumpers won’t be needed – because your Cadillac won’t crash. According to General Motors, it’s not so far off either. Global Active Safety director John Capp says that in-vehicle Doppler radar would spot obstacles or traffic jams ahead, while further into the future that information could be used in autonomous vehicles, which would share information with each other, as well as traffic signals, and potentially drive themselves.
“GM points out the strong combination of accident avoidance technologies currently offered in the 2010 Cadillac DTS Platinum, including lane departure warning, blind spot alert, and adaptive cruise control, as steps toward that crash-proof car of the future.”
