Google has stated on its official blog that it has developed technology for cars that can drive themselves. http://www.kurzweilai.net/google-cars-drive-themselves-in-trafficQuote:"Our automated cars, manned by trained operators, just drove from our Mountain View campus to our Santa Monica office and on to Hollywood Boulevard,” said Sebastian Thrun, Distinguished Software Engineer at Google and also Professor of Computer Science and director of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at Stanford University. That's my hood! Wonder if they passed me.

I'd be afraid it would say "Turn left", and go over a cliff.
Maps for my street are still decades out of date.
Internet maps that is, the old fold up paper maps are good.

Someone at work mentioned this last week. A day or two after I had a nightmare about a GoogleCar. I was in the car, and it go where it want to go, not where I want to go. I was able to take control of it, but steering, gas, and brakes were alot of work.  The car was resisting.
