You mean to tell me I will know when a light is going to turn red? Why are we not funding this?

If you are anything like me when you are in a rush to go somewhere, you hit every single red light on the way. With the new feature in the Audi cars, your car will tell you the exact speed to drive to make all the green lights. If you do get stuck at a red light it will tell you exactly how much time you have left at the light.

According to Audi, this would not only save time but also fuel  as well as a possible 15 percent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions. By potentially reducing red-light runners, making drivers less likely to get caught in a yellow-to-red transition, there could be a safety benefit too. The car will also save gas when sitting at a red light, since your car knows when the light will turn green.

I think this is something that we should see as a standard in all cars in years to come. The problem, however, is cities have to be willing to let the car into the cities traffic light network. As of right now the only American city to allow access is Las Vegas, and so far, it has been working tremendously there.
