    On your last point, most traffic monitoring is by the apps tracking everyone via Google (etc), not wires under the roads

    So, we’d need a LOT of people to be aware of the benefits of tracking for a specific app / backend before anyone would start using it.

    If we could get at the car tracking data the manufacturers use, that would be a start

      Also, that isn’t the only source of information. There are a lot traffic cameras, and speed cameras just need a comms link. Probably other stat sources than these.

      The market isn’t really able to function right now.
