Yeah, I listened to a NPR story about the Self-Driving Car a while back, fascinating.

I really hope they are made available (and affordable) in my lifetime. I'd love to be able to take a nap on the way to work every morning.

By the time they're affordable you'll be napping alot of the time and wont be working.

"According to software engineer Sebastian Thrun, the car has covered 140,000 miles with no accidents, other than a bump at traffic lights from a car behind."

When police attended the incident they found that the car behind was being driven by Mozilla Firefox.
