Cars that 'drive themselves'?

No longer science fiction and out of the 'lab' and onto the streets :o

Wait till you see who is doing the research...


Anyone driving the twists of Highway 1 between San Francisco and Los Angeles recently may have glimpsed a Toyota Prius with a curious funnel-like cylinder on the roof.

Harder to notice was that the person at the wheel was not actually driving.

I agree they 'arent there yet' but its fascinating that a private industry has done in a few years what the automotive industry has been working on for decades... Wire in the roads :haha:
