    Is there a service that you wish could enhance your productivity/frustration on the road? This could also be something that currently exists but is crappy. What gives you headaches?

    I wish there was a service that would come and vaporize any vehicle that does not use its turn signals.

    A major interstate wreck should be cleaned asap. And I mean things that could fly in the sky would take all the measurements, pics while approaching ,then take the injured out, take the metal onto the shoulder for now to get things going again on all the lanes. When you consider loss of time and fuel of vehicles trapped in these jams it is more cost effective.

    Dash mounted 50 cal would work LOL

    as a female, I wish more stops had nail shops. I dont know how my nails look this bad when all i do is drive??
    And those massage chairs that precious few Petros have.
    Id spend $10 a day sitting in those if I could find them more often

    I also wish I could sit on my ### all day and still be as skinny as when I did
    12 mile rucks and ran 5 miles 3 days a week..
    Wish with one hand and #### in the other, tell me which one fills up first
     
    dannythetrucker Thanks this.

    Technology is available to map the scene completely and quickly both from the air and the ground via digital cameras and/or LiDAR systems, the problem is the gear is expensive, specialized and is probably someplace else when you need it, many DOT's / State Police do have some of this gear though and it is used on serious crashes if available.

    Yeah.. I guess then will have to wait in line. Lately most of the jams are caused by construction anyway.
