Driving is one of the hallmarks of personal independence. However, our dependence on technology is deepening every day, and it’s not always great for hitting the road — especially if you’re texting or otherwise distracted. However, technology can also make driving safer for you and the drivers you’re sharing the road with. Here are five tech wonders that will make your next car trip simpler and safer.
HUDWAY Glass Heads-Up Navigation Display
The navigation programs on your smartphone can help you avoid traffic and arrive at your destination more quickly, but constantly glancing down at your screen can get you pulled over or even cause an accident. HUDWAY’s Heads-Up Display casts your route, speed, and other apps onto your windshield, showing you your map without blocking your view.
