New Car Lets You "Broadcast" A Message To Other Drivers

It's not for sale in North America - yet - but a new car made by Mazda has the potential to add another layer to the phrase "road rage." 

The Mazda CX-6e comes with the ability to send messages to other drivers and you can only imagine what that's lead to in tests on the new vehicle. 

"Reviewers at Drive.com in Australia put the car through its foul-mouthed paces, successfully implanting messages such as "Get out of the -ing way," which the car then broadcasts through the speakers in the soft-measured tones of a human resources professional."

What could go wrong?

There's still a chance that Mazda could modify this feature before the vehicle becomes available in major countries. But just imagine what might happen if it doesn't.


Mazda's $56,000 CX-6e lets drivers broadcast custom messages — and testers immediately used it for road rage
