But the civil libertarian in me does not like the idea of my car brodcasting anything to the outside world.

Nope, don't even need high tech to solve the issue.
Simply teach everyone to drive correctly (About 95%+ do not) in heavy traffic.
Leave one car length between you and the car in front of you, no matter what speed you are traveling at.
And here's the one that always puts the balls of the testosterone driven in a knot - EVEN if someone pulls into that space, OPEN it up again.
It's an mathematically and road tested fact that traffic spread out with these expansion spaces will ALWAYS travel faster bthan any other formation of more tightly spaced cars, regardless of the top speed achieved (within the allowed limits on that road).
It's quite simple, but "everyone" thinks that riding the bumper of the person ahead of them and not allowing anyone to pass them or get in the space in front of them will allow them to go faster. Wrong.
