Ep 451E395 - Will I still be able to modify my car however I want?
There are as many reasons why millions of people modify and customize their vehicles as there are people. However, these types of modifications are not currently covered by auto industry regulations which opens the door to safety issues. Should car owners have the freedom to modify their cars while still being covered by the same safety standards all auto owners enjoy? To answer that question and so much more is Karen Bailey-Chapman, Senior Vice President of Public and Government Affairs For the Specialty Equipment Market Association. And as a driver, what do passengers do in your car that annoys you the most? All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

This episode my guest is Dr Sujay Kaushal, professor of Geology and Earth System Science at the University of Maryland as we talk about road chemicals and the surrounding environment.

Ep 441E388 - Is this the new evolution of the back and forth car bying experience?
One of the most annoying activities has to be walking into a car dealership to buy a car. New or used. What if you could tell someone what kind of car you want and have an AI bot help negotiate the deal for you so all you have to do is walk in and sign the paperwork? That is what Zach Shefska, CEO of CarEdge is working on. In this episode I speak with Zach about how they leverage AI to research and negotiate with dealerships, the future of car buying and the future of the current car dealership business model.
