Driverless Cars on the Horizon

Search engine company Google revealed the company has been working for several years on technology that would allow a car to be operated without a human driver. Using a combination of radar, lasers, and GPS, a car with a person observing from behind the wheel, drove itself from the Bay Area to Los Angeles as well as down San Francisco's famously zig-zagging Lombard Street. Experts say it might be as much as eight years before it the techonology finds its way to the mass market. That should allow plenty of time for the law to catch up to the technology, changing laws to allow for cars that aren't controlled by people.
