The U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) and its research partners will be offering a live demonstration of connected vehicle safety technology at the Alameda Naval Air Station. During the demonstration participants will be able to experience the cars in action, witness how wireless-based safety communications help prevent crashes, speak one-on-one with the government and industry researchers, and learn how connected vehicles will change the future of automobile safety.

Connected vehicle research is a multimodal initiative that enables safe, interoperable, networked wireless communication among vehicles, infrastructure, and other communications devices. The U.S. DOT is working with car companies, trucking firms, local communities, academia, and high technology firms on this significant lifesaving research initiative. Don’t miss your chance to ride in these state-of-the-art, safety-equipped vehicles and become part of the future of surface transportation.
