China’s First Driverless Car Appears on Busy Roads of China

Posted on August 18, 2011 by Mary

via PopSci: Some states in the U.S. are already on their way to passing driverless legislation. Google is not the only one working on driverless cars. Back in July, China tested the Chinese driverless car on the busy Chinese Expressway. The car traveled 175 miles at 55mph, passed cars and changed lanes with practically no trouble. It also did not need any navigation assistance during the test drive. This technology was developed by National University of Defense Technology. It shouldn’t be long before China produces a commercial version of it. Will all vehicles soon be fully automated?
