Dear All Car Manufacturers, We have completely understood by now that you guys need lot of money to survive and that's why these days car break more often than before. They cost more money to maintain. You guys make a lot more money in keeping car on road than just selling it. The cars that doesn't break often (fortunately) will be removed from production line after 5-10 years. Warranty is a modern day myth that get void with smallest add-on customers made. In today's world when automobile industry reached to autonomous driving level and still today's car miss the basic most functionalities is totally unacceptable. Can you all please add below basic common sense add-on to all the cars in the world: Install two car batteries, and automatically flip when one dies and keep on reminding the driver through in-dash display to change the dead battery. Additional battery or sensor cost is fraction against the inconvenience this thing causes every 2 year. Car temperature going above 100-110 degree should trigger LOUD alarm with message and force driver to pull aside safely, than blowing the engine or melting the engine head. Sensor and alarm cost few hundred dollars, but it will save thousands of dollars in money, time and hassle. Please stop advertising engine horsepower and start advertising real WHP - Wheel horsepower, to stop misleading 90% of car owners. 300 horsepower engine might deliver 120 - 150 whp if setup on a 3.5 ton car. Educate customers and promote, don't mislead. Please stop using generic fault codes and be specific to which exact component need change, to eliminate guesswork for 100's of spare parts. Check Engine - Fault code - Has 100's of part causing this error. How do I know which one / two to change? Add the braking health and brake life in dashboard, so that driver can keep an eye constantly if something goes wrong and plan the maintenance. We heard enough screeching brakes as a sign of pad change, but when we go to mechanic we realize that its late and now we need to change the disc too. I will leave this here for other car users to add more CRITICAL points to improve our car owing experience.

Flying radar can track speedsters from air Speed radar might soon be installed in the latest Dubai Police drone By Majorie van Leijen Published Wednesday, October 15, 2014 A speed radar installed in a drone that flies over Dubai's roads is one of the options Dubai Police is considering to tighten the grip on speedsters in the emirate.The drone has already been built, and is capable of carrying a speed radar if such measures are to be implemented, explains Maher bin Haidar, of the General Department of Protective Security and Emergency at Dubai Police.Showing the latest and, according to him, the most advanced drones that the authority has in hand at the ongoing Gitex Technology week, he says, "This drone can capture images from a kilometre distance with its capacity to zoom in 60 times,” he explained.“It can fly for two hours, and can be controlled at a distance of 2km with a remote control." http://www.emirates247.com/news/emirates/flying-radar-can-track-speedsters-from-air-2014-10-15-1.566300

FM-AD-BLOCKER: I would like to add a device in a car for auto scrolling the FM wherever music is playing and enable them to auto toggle the channel to cut the RJ talks and ad-breaks. 90% of my drive time goes in toggling these channel, why no one has thought of this device yet.........................?

Seriously, Emirates247 has such highly creative and imaginative JOKER journalists.......? The drone can also be added with weight, so it can lift a sinking ship out of the sea, or monitor traffic, accidents and carry out other operations.
