Imagine your car automatically reporting those jarring potholes and dangerous road conditions directly to authorities. 

That’s the new reality US auto giant General Motors is developing with a patented system enabling its vehicles to detect hazards like potholes, flooding, and damaged signs.

Using existing in-car sensors, cameras, and GPS, the technology would log the precise location and nature of these issues.  For Australian drivers, constantly battling crumbling roads, this could be a game-changer.

While still in the patent stage, GM’s innovation offers a high-tech hope for faster repairs and safer journeys.  Read the full story HERE.
