GOOGLE SELF-DRIVING CARS! Telsa, an electric car company,  has been reportedly talking to Google about developing the Google car technology. The car would be similar to an airplane's autopilot. Telsa's founder later tweeted that they are no way near a partnership with Google. He also said that before the Google car they will be developing electric trucks. Google's car technology consists of cameras, wheel sensors, laser range finders, and radar to avoid traffic and other obstacles while driving.

In years to come we could all be sitting in self-driving cars. Like any other new technology the price will be tremendous but maybe worth it to some. The roads will be technoligically advanced but safety has to be the main priority.

I think the world is developing technology extremely quickly but I am not sure if we need all of it. People are being left in the technological dust.  My dad can barely work his smart phone let alone Google glasses, self-driving computer cars, and laser this that and the other.
