Of course, I’m just speaking in an analogy for our own personal behaviours and mannerisms. These negativities of body and mind hold us back, compromise our confidence and drain our potential. If we are to become better hagglers or just better at everything there is, we need to know what holds us back. Se, here are 18 common road blocks that might just be hitting us harder than the road: Read More

British Columbia and Ontario are particularly popular among movie producers and directors, with Vancouver and Toronto serving as backdrops for many movies, including X-Men and Mean Girls. As a result, the presence of cars from Canada is unavoidable.

Imagine your car speeding along the highway, its steering and speed being automatically controlled by electronic sensors, while you just sit back and relax. Making travel more enjoyable and safer, self-driving cars should in theory rid the world of traffic jams, collisions and driver fatigue. The funny par is that they still sound like something straight out of a sci-fi movie, but the truth is that they are here now – and they are fully functional.

If you’ve ever been angry or sad on the road, you would know that those simple human emotions can impair your driving abilities. Road rage and teary eyes can cause traffic accidents and severe consequences. We know how bad our tempers can get, because 80% of Canadians have admitted to hostile driving due to rage.

That’s what an in-car emotion detector is capable of doing.

In a moment of intensity, it is often hard to judge our motor skills since our mind is focused on something else. Technology that helps us measure our impairment might sound unpleasant—like really, can a robot truly understand how I feel after I’ve lost my job or had an argument with my wife?
