Researchers tout traffic-sensing high beams | detnews.com | The Detroit News

After studying roadway glare for two years, researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's Lighting Research Center say they have a solution for safer driving: Create a high beam that senses traffic and dims out a measured slice of the light beam projecting into the other lane. Lighting researchers recently demonstrated a rough prototype... Full article...

North Dakota's House has defeated a proposed 5 percent state tax exemption for new Ford Motor Co. , Chrysler LLC and General Motors Corp. cars and trucks.

Representatives voted 64-29 on Monday to defeat the measure. It offered the 5 percent tax break for new vehicle sales and leases until June 30, 2010. Some lawmakers doubted whether...

Downturn means it's back to the basics | detnews.com | The Detroit News
We were spoiled too long. Minivans that leapfrogged the competition. Outrageously powerful Cadillac concepts as lavish as a rock opera.
