Tire Pressure Warning Light

Anyone listen to CAR TALK this weekend?

Tire Pressure and National Security
This week on Car Talk, a case worthy of Jack Bauer. Karen in Maryland has noticed that her tire pressure warning light flashes every day during her commute, in the same location. Is it just a coincidence that it happens right in front of an NSA building? Or are her tires transmitting state secrets? Plus a Puzzler from the Teen Driving series... more...

Actually transmitting your speed and location to the IIHS for their smart crash statistics.
