I think driverless cars are dumb, people apply for their licenses for a reason . what if something also goes wrong & you cant do anything about it because the car is being automatically operated

Google is making it big with all this new technology they're coming out with. Google could possibly be the next big technology company, industry whatever

Driver less cars shouldn't replace all regular cars but they can help in some ways.

Once Google starts getting sued for accidents caused by their driverless car technology, I'm not sure how eager they're going to be about the having driverless cars on the road.

Wifi enabling cars seems like it's going to be incredibly lucrative for the wireless carriers. Wonder what it's going to do for available bandwidth?

Google is now selling Glass to the public until supplies run out. How special does that one-day sale seem now?

How smart would an electronic board that displays a message to the driver behind you be? I know what I'd like to say to most drivers. Seems to me that the vehicular homicide rate would skyrocket.

i think is dumb to have automatic operated car.you have to control the car.
wifi hard drive is cool, so there will be no mess of cables.
