The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) announced Tuesday that it is seeking public comment on the use and integration of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communications technologies in transportation.

The technology already has been deployed in thousands of vehicles and is using the seven channels in the 5.9 GHz band. The band is used exclusively for transportation safety communications.
