GM's master plan to avoid being shutdown



Traffic congestion, road accidents and vehicles with four wheels could soon become a thing of the past if executives at an ailing U.S. car giant get their way.

General Motors have teamed up with electric scooter maker Segway to develop a two-wheeled, two-seat electric vehicle designed to be a fast, safe, inexpensive and clean alternative to traditional cars for cities across the world.

The Personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility, or PUMA, project also would involve a vast communications network that would allow vehicles to interact with each other, regulate the flow of traffic and prevent crashes from happening.
