Self-driving cars no longer confined to controlled test tracks or even to placid suburban streets - they’re preparing for the day they can purify our chaotic streets with their robotic perfection.
Inside the city, the self-driving vehicles can log thousands of miles in a controlled setting, where cars driven by people are staged to quickly cut off a self-driving car in order to test the robot’s rate of deceleration.
Google's Waymo has patented a technology that will make its self-driving cars soft on the outside if it comes across a situation where there is a possibility of an accident with a human.
