Have you ever driven in your car and all of a sudden wanted Internet access? Well, the execs at Chrysler believe that you have and they are doing something about it.

According to the Washington Post, the automaker plans to be the first car manufacturer to offer in-car Internet access. The feature can now be added to existing vehicles by the dealers and will later be installed at the factory.

Access to the World Wide Web would be achieved through signals from mobile phone towers. Consumers will initially need a subscription to a wireless phone carrier. However, the purpose ultimately is to make the radio a WiFi port.

Our take?  Accidents are already being caused by text-messaging. Can you imagine what'll drivers do when watching Youtube while driving?
