You know how much your telephone has changed over the

past 10 years? Your car will change even more than that in the

next 10 years.

Some day you may not need to drive a car. You will just tell the

car where you want to go and it will drive itself.

Google

The American company Google has been working on a self-driving automobile for years.

These cars are already on the roads in the United States, mainly in California.

Google cars are truly self-driving. These cars have no steering wheels(方向盘)or pedals(刹车踏板).

Last week, police ordered one of Google's cars to stop for driving too slowly on a public road. The car was not against any law, so no one was punished. But police did speak to the operators of the vehicle(车辆).

According to Google, its self-driving cars have been driven nearly 2 million kilometres. That is equal to the distance the average person drives in 90 years.
