Default Touch/Feel warning options coming to cars...

http://checkoway.com/url/?s=5d7ba131

Drivers will soon be able to feel their way through traffic with the help of
a vibrating car that sends warnings about impending danger by stimulating
the sense of touch.

Scientists at Oxford University are working with a Japanese car manufacturer
to design vehicles with tactile warning alarms built in to the seat,
seatbelt, steering wheel and even foot pedals.

The aim is to send vibrations to sensitive parts of a driver's body so that
they can be warned of possible danger within a fraction of a second of it
being detected by the car's computer.

What they will vibrate when the computer's "hot woman sensor" detects a
"Good looking woman off to the right".
