Driverless electronic cars


In the UAE, they are starting to prototype a new source of transportation, driverless electronic cars called "Podcars". They say when the system is fully completed, these podcars will be able to bring you within 100 meters of any destination in the city. There are similar things in London, but nothing has ever been built and used city wide. This system hopes to be self sustainable by still charging riders the equivalent of a taxi ride. Amazing...
