Google car. will it work in India?

personally I am very excited about this. It may still take decades for it to come to India. But still, it sounds totally life changing, atleast to me.

Also see this: the process to make self driving cars legal has already begun.

Your thoughts ?

I know this has been testing for long. but its not gonna work in India.

i can imagine why

No it wont work in a country where a two lane road becomes a 4 lane road.It would be a fail

This is exciting for sure but no chance of getting success here.

Well I see this being compulsory 20-25 years down the line, at least in all the developed countries. There will no longer be any road accidents.

Well its a car after all........it can run on any average road otherwise no point in making one

I would rather see this technology on public transport than a private one.

I would never let someone else to drive my car, let alone let the car drive itself.

But promising technology. I would like driver aids to come up in cars first, but those are restricted to super expensive cars for now.

But nice to see this tech. Awesome !

The way Google is spreading its tentacles everywhere.....its scary.

Nice tech though.

its gr8 if your travelling long distance and are too tired or sleepy to drive...switch auto-drive...goto sleep...get up...back to manual driving.

However, I am not optimistic whether this will workout. Take a look at this:

Internet Evolution - The Big Report - Google's Mounting Trash Pile

google is the epitome of a business gone bad.
they started out so well.
now all they care about is revenues and ads.

the consumer is left to rot.

I think the project is very old.
Google won the DARPA Grand Challenge ... see this link

I saw the telecast of this DARPA Grand Challenge on TV. It was very nice and exciting...

project is old, but the new thing AFAIK is that its running on public roads now. And its achieved over 200,000 miles on public roads without a single accident. Which is totally awesome!

^^ everyone is scared of teminator/kitt, so they move away
