Self-driving cars aren’t exactly a good
thing on the road. For one, it can cause life-threatening accidents not only to
the driver but to the passengers and other people on the road as well. However,
Google, with its ever-pioneering nature, started using self-driving golf carts
within their property nearly two years, when they posted on their blog that
several of their cars have already crossed the 140,000-mile mark.
The World Health Organization reports that
automobile accidents take around 1.2 million lives all the time and Google aims
to cut this figure by half – with self-driving golf carts. Last year, Google co-founder
Sergey Brin reported that their golf carts have now been driven for over 1,000
miles without the need for driver intervention.
