I'm going to assume it's very super smart people simply wanting bragging rights for having come up with the tech rather than hoping to one day put it into action.
I can't see this technology actually becoming a widely used thing at all. A billion different unpredictable variables are taking place as a person drives. Weather, animals, road conditions, whatever the case is.
Is Google serious with this stuff? Are we really going to see this become reality? When I was being taught to drive, they drilled it into our heads that there's no such thing as NON-Defensive driving. You have to be expecting the worst every single time, even if you're the bomb at driving. You have to always be prepared for some bullshit to happen.
When I was a kid, I did indeed ride my bike out into the street without thinking straight and if that guy didn't hit the brakes like crazy, I'd be dead.
So I'm definitely hoping Google's just playing around with this tech cuz no way do I think anybody is going to be safe if people put cars on autopilot out there.
