What is V2V communication? How this proposed vehicle safety system could help prevent road accidents

Imagine if your car could warn you about a crash before you could even see it. That's the idea behind Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication, a technology the Indian government has proposed making mandatory for new vehicles in phases from 2027 and 2028. Put forward to let vehicles exchange real-time information on speed, location, braking and direction, V2V aims to alert drivers to hidden hazards such as sudden braking, blind intersections, wrong-way vehicles and approaching ambulances. Here's how the technology works, which vehicles will be covered, why the government is pushing it after nearly 2 lakh road deaths in 2024, and the challenges around cost, compatibility and cybersecurity.Disclosure: Some visuals in this video are AI-generated for illustration.
