I was watching this video of a live chicken trapped on a moving truck and thought it was strange that it’s not possible to say anything to them even when circumstances might warrant it. All we got is honking and waving. There could be a touchscreen interface with a map of nearby vehicles. It could be voice controllable or the passenger could do it for safety.
CB radio? That shit is for truckers and nerds but it was solid.
It’s called a CB radio. Enjoy.
If I can’t say “on screen” first then I don’t want it
You can just remember to say “Over” over.
Is the communications holofilter ready?
Engage the overlay. Put them on screen.
“sir they’re hailing us!”
“Thanks wife, put them through.”
“HEY FUCKER YOU DIDNT SIGNAL”
* my bad hand wave *
That sounds awful. But it does exist, its called a cb radio
Yeah my friend has a cb radio and he says when traffic is bad people are just yelling at each other. Although that’s anonymous, if the messages showed you were X person from C vehicle it would probably be a bit more civil
Have you seen the movie Serenity? When they’re out in Reaver space, remember the radio chatter?
That’s what it would sound like.
CB Radio was big in the 70’s.
it must have been super fun. I wish the world was based on magnets again
I heard it’s not completely dead, just mostly. Be the change you want to see!
You’ve seen unfiltered general chat on an mmo?
Not around me at highway speeds, please and thank you.
You have seen unfiltered general chat on an mmo?
And now that at freeway speeds?
No thank you.
This is actually being worked on. Researchers are looking at adding a 4th light to stop lights. When enough “smart” cars get into the area they will talk to each other and the stop light to help control the flow of traffic. The 4th light is to tell you that is happening. When the cars leave the area, the turns off, and the light goes back to normal control mechanisms.
They do. Some people post their radio frequency their car.
You could publish your phone number right on your car. See how it goes.
