Did Google’s self-driving Prius totally just become self-aware and start attacking humans? It’s the Skynets! Nah, turns out that the human required to be inside the vehicle by law was also actually driving at the time.
A project funded by the European Commission is working to develop an infrastructure for self-driving cars. The system, called SARTRE (Safe Road Trains for the Environment), will allow cars to autonomously travel in a convoy. Also, testing begins NOW.
