The AP via U.S. News & World Report reported last month that California's Department of Motor Vehicles has proposed regulations that would allow fully autonomous cars, without a human driver, steering wheel or control pedals. On Wednesday the state's government held a workshop to hear public comment on the proposal. In January, Google had stated that it would not offer such cars in California if the state required a human driver to be present. According to KCRA-TV,
DMV hopes to have a finalized draft of regulations in the coming months. There will then be a 45-day public comment period before the draft is approved.

Cool!
Actually, I have a five second rule. A person who is acting inappropriately, after I deal with the situation working to make sure everybody survives, I give them five seconds of my ire. Then, I let it go. Or try to. I must admit, I've been working this approach for many years and the most I could give initially was .25 seconds on tranquility. Now, I'm just old and can't hear them yelling at me anyway :)
