The future is here. Google has a self driving car prototype which not only will allow us all to travel on safer roads, we can be lazy Americans who can use both hands to scarf down burgers all the while driving towards our destinations. No, the cars aren't being controlled by the Devil, it uses googles latest technology which is deemed safer than human drivers. In fact, in the latest news about these little googler cars, the car performed perfectly, but since it was too safe a human driver ran into the back of the super smart car while it stopped for a pedestrian in a crosswalk. However, this should prove that the computerized driving cars of the future are in fact safer than their organic counterparts. The real beauty of robots driving people around is that once the entire traffic system is computerized, traffic fatalities will probably drop by more than 95%. Hopefully the future will hold glorious brightly colored roads that look like something from the movie Tron. Otherwise, our future will look like something from the Matrix or Terminator where we are controlled, hunted, or killed by the machines that we built. I think we can all hope for the former and this new venture from google is only the beginning.
