Imagine jumping into your car, setting a destination, sitting back and closing your eyes until you arrive. Your imagination isn't far from reality, with Google's newest advancements in technology there are already cars driving themselves around!
For those of you who may second guess this idea of the self driving car, take a look at your current car and you may find certain driver-assist systems. From the adaptive cruise control you use on those long distance drives to the parallel parking assistance you use to help you get into that tight parking space, these automated systems are more prevalent than you may think. Honda has even created its very own Honda Intelligent Driver Support (HiDS). Features of this support system include Intelligent Highway Cruise Control, which controls vehicle speed to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead and also Lane-Keeping Assist System which helps to prevent lane departure.
Who doesn't like to be chauffeured around town, those early morning commutes and late nights on the town may no longer seem an issue when you have the option of letting your car get you to your destination.
If Honda were to release its own self driving model, would you be first on the band wagon and get one or are you old school where you need to take control of the car?
Sounds absolutely great! Sign me up!
