LOL.

My thoughts exactly.

One step forward and two steps backwards for safety.

I guess next time you'll watch where you are driving. Especially after paying for the trailer and the contents it's hauling. Just because you are a shitty driver and could see the potential in running into a "big ass truck" doesn't mean everyone else is.]]>Dec 22nd 2009 7:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/art-lebedevs-transparentius-eliminates-opacity-improves-road-s/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/art-lebedevs-transparentius-eliminates-opacity-improves-road-s/And that's what you people call "good thinking".

Seems to me the real flaw of this plan is that you should not try to reduce the number of idiots that kill themselves.

Right right, making most of the viewable area of the truck (the back) seem invisible is TOTALLY SAFE...

And yes I ALWAYS bump into my TV as it ALWAYS shows whats on the other side of it when it's off....nice failing comparison there.

You people who think a tiny plate and tiny lights are going to be more noticeable than the huge screen showing the main information are crazy.

The tech is the exact same as some of the invisibility cloaks being worked on and YOU people are trying to say an semi invisible mack truck would actually be safer? That right there is some hard core fail on your part.]]>Dec 22nd 2009 3:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/art-lebedevs-transparentius-eliminates-opacity-improves-road-s/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/art-lebedevs-transparentius-eliminates-opacity-improves-road-s/
You could project onto just the drivers side and leave the passengers side cargo door solid. Then the driver can see what's beyond but there is a more obvious reference point to the truck.]]>Dec 28th 2009 12:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/art-lebedevs-transparentius-eliminates-opacity-improves-road-s/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/art-lebedevs-transparentius-eliminates-opacity-improves-road-s/Dec 22nd 2009 6:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/art-lebedevs-transparentius-eliminates-opacity-improves-road-s/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/22/art-lebedevs-transparentius-eliminates-opacity-improves-road-s/

You have to be really careful telling the English how to speak our own language. We have something of an ownership complex in respect of it.
