The technologies in cars today go far behind the type of engine it has. Cars today are filled with technologies that do not have anything to do with how the car runs: navigation, satellite radio, television and heated seats. With all of these amenities in cars, on top of technologies such as cell phones that people cannot put down, driving has become a task that is never done on its own. Now, I would consider driving synonymous with multitasking. Whether it is sipping a cup of coffee, plugging directions into the GPA or listening to a voicemail, there are many tasks happening at once. To adjust to this trend, carmaker Audi is making changes to enhance its safety as it adds more technology.
This article explains that Audi is introducing Google map satellite images for its navigation and has a Wi-Fi hotspot to find locations such as nearby restaurants. At the same time, Audi is putting in cameras and warning systems to prevent crashes.
