Self Driving Cars may be coming to Nevada

May 11th, 2011 Alex

Google is lobbying for Nevada to be the first state to have first self driving cars. Two bills are being introduced as Google says that over 14,000 miles have been tested on California roads. Google says more than 1000 miles have been driven autonomously without any human interaction but is definitely still in a testing phase.

This would be a huge breakthrough if it passes. We are still pretty far from seeing automated driving cars take over the streets but it would be awesome to see the development begin. Having self driving cars would prevent a lot more accidents as it would be safer and save gas as the cars are driven more fuel efficiently.
