Traffic 2.0
• Congestion causes 4.2 billion hours of travel in USA alone.
• An extra 2.9 billion gallons of fuel burned due to congestion.
• 100 cars equipped with the Nokia 95 and driven by University of California students traveled a 10-mile highway stretch near San Fransisco to demonstrate how real-time traffic stats can be obtained using GPS-enabled cell phones.
• All data sent was completely anonymous and encrypted, keeping privacy concerns at bay.
• The special software on the N95s used during the test sent periodical speed and location readings based on the integrated GPS system.
• Estimates are that only 5% of drivers needing to contribute for the system to work on any given highway.
