A working prototype of Google's self-driving car has cameras and sensors, but no permanent driver controls

No thanks. We have an automatic onramp for the interstate here, and it STILL caused accidents, after decades of being installed. I think they simply disconnected it.

no thanks, what if it breaks then in the middle of traffic? electronics are funny thing about all of a sudden they work then they don't . ie the ghost in my radio. buttons for off/on didn't work , when I would press the eject button the radio came on or shut off.

Just pick it up and set it off to the side of the road. Google will pick it up later. Happens all the time.

Looks like one of questdriven 's anima's.

Suppose another car hits you in that thing, or you it something and your knees are used to slow the car down upon impact.

I admit, I DO think the car is cute. So is my cat, but I wouldn't ride my cat down the freeway either!

Now that gives me an idea for Google. They should incorporate a hatch in the floor so when you come to a hill you can open the floor to stick your feet through to help push it up the hill.

The google car is the biggest pervert. Total invasion of privacy.

Last time i seen it was a few years ago and i was working and it drove past recording me.

If you see it then it sees you.
