Connected Vehicles Aim to Revolutionize Road Safety and Efficiency

New technologies enable cars to share real-time data, potentially reducing traffic incidents and fatalities.

Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming are leading efforts to implement vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology.
V2X technology allows cars to communicate with each other and roadside infrastructure about road conditions.
A federal blueprint aims for 25% of intersections in top metro areas to be V2X-equipped by 2028.
Privacy concerns persist despite assurances of data anonymity and security.
Pilot programs in Michigan and Texas are testing smart road corridors to enhance traffic management.
