The U.S. Department of Transportation on Monday announced it would move forward with a plan that would make car-to-car communication mandatory among light vehicles, a measure that could lead to safer roads.

For instance, a car that unexpectedly slams on the brakes could communicate the action to nearby vehicles, which then could warn their drivers.
