Background
We seek updated legislation because we think current laws do not reflect today’s technology. We think allowing drivers to access real-time traffic updates and emergency info while stopped could reduce congestion and prevent accidents. We think this change supports innovation and ensures drivers stay informed, ultimately enhancing overall road safety.
