I've always said that I thought the day would come when cars would drive themselves. Not in the city, for those quick 10 minute drives to the grocery store or wherever.. those are quick trips, that usually involve changes of mind and direction depending on the time of day and what else you need to do. But those longer trips, the 40 minute commute to work, the 2 hour drive to visit family (or 12 if your family happens to live in another state) it would be amazing. You could program the gps, set the car to go, and sit back and read or something similar.
And the GPS is exactly why I thought it was possible. If you can have a gps that will track your position, and show you step by step, turn by turn, second by second, where you are, where you are going, when to turn, traffic congestion, etc. Why can't you tie that into the cars speed and steering and let it do it for you?
Apparently you can
