Google driverless cars cause accident on road

Google Driverless car
The car, a Lexus SUV, was aiming to navigate around some sandbags at a speed of 2mph, when it hit a bus which was travelling at 15 mph, according to a report filed by the  California’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).

Funny enough this isn't the first incident as it is only one of seventeen other accidents that has occurred, thankfully no one was injured but this was the first time google admitted and took the blame.

“From now on, our cars will more deeply understand that buses (and other large vehicles) are less likely to yield to us than other types of vehicles, and we hope to handle situations like this more gracefully in the future”, a correspondent from google claimed.

Google also states the car will be completely ready for road use/ safety by 2020
