Like with the Etos, the Kwid\'s drone could be used for taking aerial photography, but it might also have a role in spotting traffic jams and other road congestion up ahead, the French firm theorized. There was a man in front of me in the queue in tesco's buying condoms. When the cashier asked if he needed a bag, he said "No, she isn't that ugly" Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 26-10-2015 11:52 AM LeeLegEnd Satans Backdoor Wizard Registered: Jul 2004 Posts: 8647 - Threads: 146 Location: Don't most sat navs show you congestion these days?

My point being if an accident has just happened then it'll take a short while for the sat navs to pick up on the congestion from an rta. If you have a personal drone that can fly ahead a ways and something has just happened, your personal drone is more likely to beat the sat navs in warning you. I'm probably not getting my point across succinctly....
