hi,

so why did the nfb have to go solo and reinvent the  wheel/car instead of 
colaborating with a company like google?
i have a  theory but don't have time for the usual blasting returned.

I think one of the things we  have to admit is that driverless cars will 
have
accidents and  perhaps they will be different from the accidents that cars
with  sighted drivers have.  There is probably no program in the world  that
has ever been written and run that did not have to be  modified.  It is a 
sad
truth of the world that important  inventions sometimes involve deadly
mistakes.  Mostly I think  this technology will prove in the long term to be
far safer than  human beings driving vehicles while distracted by their cell
phones,  their children, and the list can go on forever.  We are not  ready
yet, but I think the fact that a state like Nevada and a  company like 
Google
are involved show that this dream goes far  beyond what blind people want.
