Tech for the Sake of Tech?

• I found it kind of surprising that most younger people don't care about having smartphone connectivity options in their automobiles. It seems that people between the ages of 21-38 haven't adapted the desire for technology as much as my generation. I kind of thought that they would care about these connections because, technology runs most peoples lives now a days. I strongly don't think my generation will feel the same way about this, my generations lives revolve around technology, mainly smart phones. I think my generation would find it very beneficial because, it just makes access to smart phones 24/7 an even easier goal to accomplish. 

• I don't think that the technologies mentioned in the article are beneficial to fixing the issue because drivers are obsessed with their phones. No matter how much technology is put into place, the driver still has the urge to check the text or isn't focusing on the road but, is focusing on thoughts of what it could say. People of today are glued to their phones 24/7 whether they're driving or not no matter the risks. 

• In my opinion and for most other people, the new technologies the vehicles have are always an important aspect to consider while purchasing a new vehicle. Most people always want the newest technology or at least a good enough version that help can be offered to the driver/passengers through its technology. 

• If I was purchasing an automobile, a really important technology I'd be interested in having in my vehicle would be the camera used for backing up and heated seats. I find I'm an accident prone person and kind of clumsy so I would probably run right into a hydro pole and not even notice. The camera shows u where you.ll end up and what is behind you so I think it would be a huge help and I'd definitely need it. Also I find heated seats great comfort especially for someone who is always cold like me.

•  A new feature that I think most people would have found useless when it was first introduced is cruise control. I think people thought it was dumb because they could press the gas themselves and stay around the same speed so they didn't feel the need for it. But, in later years, people realized how important and beneficial cruise control could be to them.
