If you need to clear leaves from your car, do it carefully, picking them out with your hands or by using a leaf blower with light air pressure. Too much pressure can cause leaves to become lodged in hard-to-reach places. consumerreports.org/car-main…

#V2X technology could revolutionize the way vehicles communicate safety information with each other, but it needs enough dedicated spectrum—airwaves—to be rolled out securely and effectively. Here's how this technology works: youtube.com/watch?v=wzePhwrd… #SavetheSafetySpectrum
crcarskfunk: Here's a video filmed in Salt Lake City, Utah about the technology! youtube.com/watch?v=wzePhw…

FCC wants to split the 5.9 GHz band and use a chunk for WiFi. Almost 40,000 people die on our roads each year—>100 a day. Yet the FCC's plan doesn't show how it would protect the ability to use V2X safety tech. #SavetheSafetySpectrum

Each year, motor vehicle crashes in the U.S. kill almost 40,000 people and send about 2.5 million people to ERs. #V2X technology could significantly reduce the number and severity of crashes, saving thousands of lives a year. #SavetheSafetySpectrum consumerreports.org/car-safe…

⚠️The @FCC wants to give away most of the airwaves reserved for auto safety and use them for WiFi. This move would undermine the life-saving potential of crucial #V2X technologies and jeopardize safety on U.S. roads. Demand FCC #SavetheSafetySpectrum!
