It is often said that hindsight is 20\/20 vision, meaning that anyone can see the path after making the turn on the right road. When it comes to driverless cars, self-driving cars, autonomous vehicles, etc., however you choose to define them, Google has been trying its best to work with current car automakers in an effort to bring its latest futuristic idea to the market with the goal of achieving mass adoption quickly.<\/p>\n
But, the road to mass adoption hasn\u2019t proven easy for the search engine giant. Right after Google\u2019s driverless cars took center stage, a number of car manufacturers started railing against the idea. Many voiced their fears about fully autonomous vehicles that wouldn\u2019t require human intervention in the car-driving process. At that point, Google was told that its driverless cars would be forced to adhere to certain state traffic laws: that is, drivers will need to be licensed in, specifically, driving the new vehicles (separate certification from current cars). While this is an understandable mandate for state traffic regulations, it shows that technology is not always met with the \u201cgreen light\u201d companies dream about.<\/p>\n
