Google announced Sunday that it has developed cars that drive themselves automatically in traffic, and that it has been testing them on the streets of California for months. It might seem like an unusual project for Google, but it could actually have big benefits.

One day, driver's licenses may be a thing of the past.

I tell you what, I'd love to see automated vehicles. The idiocy of drivers in Northern Virginia has thoroughly convinced me that 90% of the human population is incapable of operating a motor vehicle.

Me too. Not only because of all the bad drivers out there. I'd much rather use all the time I currently spent driving to read or watch TV or surf the web. It gets so monotonous.

I rather enjoy driving, mostly because I'm a good driver (until you ask me to reverse). It's just the other people out there that absolutely shouldn't be driving.
