Building new roads and new lanes often just isn’t possible any longer, but building intelligence into the roads and the cars—with roadside sensors, radio frequency tags, and global positioning systems—certainly is.
Also (and this is a digression), check out that snazzy menu of all of IBM’s “A Smarter Planet” topics on the landing page. RAD:
