The number of connected cars on the Hamilton Ontario roads is increasing, but not as fast as expected. It is still incredible to think that cars can communicate not only with one another but also with traffic infrastructure acquiring information pertinent for safe and efficient driving such as road and weather conditions, optimized fuel consumption, and the like. However, is that all we want from a car? With limitless connectivity and practically autonomous driverless technology, passengers (and drivers now turned passengers) will have more time and need for entertainment, interaction, and … [Read more...]

Smart Cities: What’s the Progress Status?

January 20, 2020 By CRS Automotive

smart cities progress status

The idea of smart cities was not on anyone's radar back in 2005, but then New Orleans got a head start on data-driven decision making thanks to Hurricane Katrina. After Katrina hit and the city's levees failed, the city started using data to improve and speed-up decision making to support the city's recovery. Amsterdam was another early adopter with the Amsterdam Smart Cities Initiative in 2009. The team used data to address depression and increase treatment for people who were not getting help. By combining statistics from insurance companies and information about the cost of treatment for … [Read more...]

How Do Social Media and Vehicles Interact?

July 31, 2017 By CRS Automotive

social media + car

Now more than ever, buying a car has become a social event. More and more people, and not only Millennials, who were practically raised by the Internet, are looking for their new or slightly used vehicle on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram. Why, you ask? Because whoever buys a car will show it off on social media as soon as they leave the dealership. They will share why they picked the car they bought. They will say what they are excited about and what bugs them while driving their shiny new toy (even though they shouldn’t tweet and drive). They will recount their overall purchase … [Read more...]

How to Keep Car Cooling System Healthy

April 24, 2017 By CRS Automotive

Car coolant temperature gauge

No, we are not talking about the Air Conditioning System. It isn’t about keeping your person cool. It’s about keeping your engine cool. Note: You can bring your car anytime to our auto service shop in Hamilton if you are not sure how to fix the problem. Our professional licensed mechanics can help. Well, keeping it cool is maybe a simplistic way to say it, as the engine never really gets cool while working. But it should at least be kept from overheating. It toils at insanely high temperatures and needs an external source of cooling to keep it running. Wait, how come that … [Read more...]

7 Ways to Keep Your Hands off the Phone While Driving

February 13, 2017 By CRS Automotive

car driving phone

We live in a buzzy world of distractions. Wait, was that a Messenger ping? What was I saying? Yes, distractions. It’s hard to focus on doing one thing. However, sometimes it’s really vital to be able to resist the urge to divide your attention between multiple spheres. All of us would agree that using a cell phone while driving is dangerous. Even a quick check if that’s your girlfriend confirming she can go to that dinner can put someone’s life at risk. It’s not just taking a quick look at that fancy little screen of yours.

My Auto Shop: Car Maintenance App

February 6, 2017 By CRS Automotive

Let’s try to guess the answer. I make progress in both of them, but it’s a never-ending process. There’s always something else under the table. Is that right? Wrong. Try again. One time or another, a major glitch is gonna turn up and ruin the moment. Any better? No. You couldn’t be more wrong. There are games without major glitches, and cars are also getting more stable every day. Try again. Huh… I usually play mobile games while waiting for the guys to fix my car.
