Zero-chance.
vehicle to infrastructure = Texting while Driving

I repeat what many shills for “driverless cars” keep denying was ALWAYS a part of the genesis of ideas surrounding them - every vehicle “connected” to a system that interconnects to every traffic system in the country (promoted as necessary for the totality of a fully functioning total “driverless car” environement) and in one place, that data can show - whoever is interested - where exactly you are if you are with your car, anywhere in the country in real time. That is the dream of the arrogant technologists represented by the likes of Google et al.
