prevent secondary collisions and save lives
Hello,
Following today's tragic 50-vehicle pile-up in Bulgaria, I'd like to suggest a potentially life-saving feature.
Could Waze and Google Maps use smartphone sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, GPS) to automatically detect accidents and immediately alert approaching drivers?
Cross-checking signals from multiple nearby devices could help prevent false alerts.
Such a feature could prevent secondary collisions and save lives, especially in large highway pile-ups where every second matters.
Thank you for considering this idea!
