    The Driverless Car

    The driverless car and 20 other great concept cars - Times Online

    It incredible! It's not like the car that was on Top Gear which had to have the route pre-planned, this one can drive entirely on it's own. It can read road signs and tell where others cars are on the road!

    For driving enthusiasts, it will be no fun. However I think the technology behind it is amazing, and will be great for elderly people.

    Sounds cool, but I hope that there is someway to deactivate it if it goes belly up while the car is moving.

    Re: The Driverless Car

    I am sure that the car in the photo was on the Hexus front page a while back, there was an article about cost and what it did etc.

    Or am I just imagining things?
