Turning Car Tail Lights into Proximity Warnings

Studies show that the majority of casualties on the road happen because of drivers not using proper following distances. It is not (yet) enforceable by cameras like speeding.

The design of the twin-engine drone is compact, simple and aerodynamic. The propellers are under the turbine configuration, which gives a great protection against impacts and concentration of air flow.
