You can buy cars today that can almost drive by itself. Adaptive cruise control. Automated parking. Lane assist. Automatic braking to avoid accidents. BMW has demonstrated a driverless racing lap on Top Gear before can be seen in the link I posted in another comment.

I was downvoted for asking what this Google car did that other companies haven't already demonstrated. No answer though.




it doesn't 'almost drive by itself'. it drives by itself.


Car companies have made cars that do that too.

No completely autonomous car is on the market though. Not from Google nor anyone else.
