Recent investigations by '60 Minutes'...have demonstrated that the threat of hacker accessing and controlling a connected car is real.

More than 2 million Americans were injured in car crashes last year, with more than 30,000 deaths.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for holding today's hearing on vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) technology.
