Nevada passes
Assembly Bill Number 511, making driverless cars like Google's legal. The bill defines driverless cars as
relying on "artificial intelligence, sensors and global positioning system" to coordinate the ability for the car to drive itself without a human operator.
Alex Taylor provides food for thought by asking if Google will become the new GM or Google Motors. While it
may seem an unwelcome diversion for Google, a company knee-deep in regulatory battles, he notes the potential for driverless cars is huge, with 15 million new ones sold in the U.S. every year, about
60 million worldwide.
