Part C Wi-Fi in the Car

The major issue that is raised in the article "Ford brings Wi-Fi to the Highway" is that if it is safe to have the distraction of internet while driving. There are any impacts to consider as well as just the issue. For example I think that there should be legal matters saying that it is illegal to be on the internet while driving. Also psychological, economic, and cultural all need to be considered.

The Major Stakeholders are the Car Company, the Hardware for the Wi-Fi and also the Car owner. And there are positive and negative features for each. The Car Company has some benefits because if this is successful then it will really help them out. But if the Wi-Fi does cause car accidents and cause people to get hurt all because the driver was distracted with the internet then the number of cars sold will go down. A benefit for the clients, the people who buy the new Ford Models is that the passengers in the car can keep up to date on their email and not be bored in the car. But a drawback is that if there is a car accident because the driver is using the internet, then someone could get hurt or even killed.
