Google is working on driverless cars.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39606282/ns/te...nce-innovation/

"WASHINGTON — Google Inc. is road-testing cars that steer, stop and start without a human driver, the company says.

The goal is to "help prevent traffic accidents, free up people's time and reduce carbon emissions," project leader Sebastian Thrun wrote Saturday on Google's corporate blog."

Soon we will have roads like in the movie Demolition Man.


Thats kind of cool but I dont think I would trust it very much.
