Google's New Car: No Driver, And No Steering Wheel

Google has revealed a prototype of its latest driverless car -- and this one doesn't even have a steering wheel.

The car will only have a stop and go button. No steering wheel. No pedals.

Unlike Google's previous self-driving vehicles, which have been based on conventional cars adapted to navigate around without a driver, this model has been designed from scratch.

"They won't have a steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal... because they don't need them," Google said in a statement.

    No steering wheel, no brakes? Because it "won't need them"? Ever hear of a circuit failure? A component failure? There is no such thing as a perfectly operating machine, especially one that relies on a multitude of electronic devices.
    Go ahead. Get in.

    It would STILL be a LOT better than a LOT of drivers around here. That is IF they can manage to get in the thing in the first place.
