Article of the Day: Driver-less Cars Accidents

The California DMV has just released all of its driverless car accident reports online. No fatalities or major accidents were shown to have occurred, but still a number of fender-benders. All apparently with human-error to blame, as it is shown that the main cause in the accidents seems to be that driverless cars are overly cautious. Though it sounds like a good thing, it could lead to some issues, where human drivers expect a more aggressive and fast driver, accidents could occur because of it. For example, one driverless Google car was rear-ended at a traffic light. The driverless car was creeping forward but abruptly stopped when it noticed another car behind it.
