Date: 2022-12-08 12:30 pm (UTC)Who is going to invest in the bandwidth for wireless internet throughout every A road, never mind every country lane ?
Bye-bye in car radio.
Though if someone *is* prepared to put 5G *with multicast IP* (so that the bandwidth on motorways isn't all taken up with 10K copies of the same radio channel) and/or a national wifi service (like Slovenia) with >95% coverage by area, great.
