Many technological innovations have proven helpful in how we drive our cars.  Cruise control can allow us to maintain acceleration at a certain level for long trips, traction control can help with difficult road conditions, GPS navigation and synching with our cell phones can help with navigation or even other parts of the ride (like playing music or audiobooks), and eventually, cars may be able to drive themselves.  Some have the feature, but it has yet to be perfected.

But what about the memories of the great road trip we like to share?  What about those  pesky parts that slip our minds until later, and by then the party’s over and the guests have gone home already.  And who wants to call them up and say, “Hey, I just remembered this one part I forgot to mention about our trip …”?  I didn’t think so.

Well, some day we may be able to have a helping hand with that as well.  No more trying to remember the best parts of the journey, or having lapses in memory, or having the difficult time describing the most fantastic parts of the road trip.  Another technological innovation can enhance the relationship between human and automobile.

Imagine having road buddies that can key in the pertinent information about the pothole you dodged on the interstate, or the rest stop with the restaurants and shops to die for, or even the breathtaking views of the woods where you stopped to grab a breath of fresh air.  Imagine being able to project these personal memories on your television, computer screen, laptop, tablet or phone as you recount the tale of your cool adventure.  Soon all of this can become a reality.  The newer generation of our four-wheeled friends may have them rolling at various rotations per minute, covering all four points of contact, and recording every detail so you won’t miss a beat.

Jet Lag Technologies will soon introduce the next innovation from Snore Story Labs: Scrapbook Tires.  These marvelous, ingenious little cushions for your wheels will come equipped with microphones and gyroscopically mountable cameras that can catch every detail of the open roads on which you travel, adding the details that you don’t want to miss when you share your road trip with your friends and loved ones.  Imagine being the hit of the party, and not having to go through those annoying callbacks that get you unfriended in social media, and put on the do not call list, or have people blocking you on their cell phones.

The Scrapbook Model XTs will come equipped with this nanotechnology that makes it all possible.  After it undergoes testing to improve durability in various weather and road conditions, they will be able to capture as much information as needed to tell the road trip story that will rival your peers.  These will be great for scrapbookers, hence the catchy name.

No substantial dates can be given as the project is not past the development stages yet. In order for such technology to be brought about would call for a lot of committed designing, lab testing, supremely technological materials, years of research and development, and countless sums of money invested to cover it all.  Further updates may follow on a fake news outlet near you.  April Fool.
