Wouldn't it be great if you could just step into your car, buckle up, and simply by whisked to work while you just read the paper or even take a nap? It might sound like a crazy sci-fi fantasy but many experts say that cars that can drive themselves could be as little as 20 years away. Much of the technology already exists and autonomous cars could provide a way to keep drivers on the road indefinitely, ensure independence, and even increase both the safety and efficiency of driving. Would you trust a car to drive you around, or do you need to have your own hands on the wheel?
