Default Driverless cars


The news today has an article stating that Waymo, the robotic car
company created by Google is poised to attempt a major technological
leap in California, where its vehicles will hit the roads without a
human on hand to take control in emergencies.

"The regulatory approval announced on Tuesday allows Waymo's
driverless cars to cruise through California at speeds up to 104.6
kilometers per hour". Or about 65 MPH.

The article goes on to say that "Waymo's cars with safety drivers have
been involved in dozens of accidents in California, but those have
mostly been minor fender benders at low speeds."

cheers,

John B.
