Junior, Stanford's robot Volkswagen, passed its basic driver's test on Thursday. Driving just 15 miles per hour, Junior passed with flying colors in three of four "missions" on a parking-lot course, including a three-point U-turn and successful navigation of a four-way stop with human-driver cars. But it got stuck on a course passing a car.
When robot drivers become a reality in the streets...I definitely won't be missing the cell phone chatter or careless coffee drivers on the way to work....three cheers for technology...
