It's Tuesday, July 11th, and here's a story that sounds like a tech accident waiting to happen. We've all heard of the Tesla autopilot feature that will essentially drive your car for you under certain circumstances. Now it looks like German automaker Outtie is taking things a step further with a feature called Traffic Jam Pilot.

There's a good band name for you right there, anyway. Car enthusiasts cite Jalopnik reports that the feature will essentially do the driving for you up to 37 miles per hour. They say Audi's promotional pitch of the future includes suggesting drivers can essentially let the car take over all driving duties under certain circumstances such as say a traffic jam and drivers can kick back and catch up on Archer episodes on the front infotainment screen once the traffic clears up, when the car can go faster than 37 miles an hour, the driver will have to hit pause and resume driving. Audi plans to start rolling out aspects of the autonomous tech next year but full implementation will come in phases as both car tech and other factors come into play.

Hit the link for all the latest details here's the story we came across that sounded just a bit too good to be true, but after some checking around it looks like the real deal. According to CBS News, law enforcement officials in New Mexico say that an as-yet unspecified smart home device called "deputies" during a domestic violence situation and that the call was made by man who saves two lives. Deputies say that during the incident in which a woman was injured someone said something that caused the home bot to call the Sheriff's Department where a 9-1-1 operator heard what was going on and dispatched help, a suspect with a gun was arrested and the woman and a child were reported safe.

Details from the case indicate a smart home hub potentially a Google home device made the call possibly after the suspect told the victim not to call the sheriff's office which the device may have heard as "call the sheriff's office" which it did. That's what happened, it could mark the first incident where smart home hub intervened to alert authorities that a crime was taking place.

It's Amazon Prime day, which has quickly become a sort of Christmas in July event for Amazon Prime members with Jeff Bezos wearing Santa's hat deals abound in everything from TVs, housewares, computers, smartphones and on and on. We got a bit of a heads up on the deals that we're about to hit so we've gone through the list and highlighted the biggest money savers by category.

Prime day is just that one day only today, so hit the link for all the best bits and you'll have to be a prime number to get the details but that's pretty much the whole point isn't it. Clever Jeff, it's very clever.
