Nevada law

How could the state of Nevada pass a law that applies to both Nevada and California? 90.210.82.161 (talk) 21:10, 17 December 2012 (UTC)Concerned

The Nevada law did not authorize driverless car operation in Nevada; rather, it specifically forbade it.

What the law did is to charge the DOT to come up with regulations regarding the operation of driverless cars in Nevada, and to authorize cars that comply with such to be driven on Nevada highways.

Until such time as the regulations are made and approved, no driverless car can comply with them. You can't comply with something that doesn't exist. This may, in fact, have the opposite effect of raising the issues of whether a self-parallel-parking car can legally be operated, since it is not regulated or approved.

Speed?

How fast does Googles driverless car go? 10 km/h? 20 km/h? Fabbe (talk) 09:21, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

As fast as normal cars, I think. --Stryn (talk) 17:18, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

From article: The system drives at the speed limit it has stored on its maps and maintains its distance from other vehicles using its system of sensors. --Stryn (talk) 17:19, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

Contradictory info

How can Google have a dozen autonomous cars on the roads at any given time, if (like the article states two paragraphs earlier) they've "outfitted ten" cars in total ? I guess the two numbers are just from different points in time, but it's confusing. --Eivind Kjørstad (talk) 20:27, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Good catch. Andrew³²⁷ 20:34, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Recent Vandalism

Earlier today, User:Maclean12 submitted three revisions to the article, which were obviously vandalism. I undid the edits. Is this all I do, or can I report this user? Thanks in advance! ArturGhostmancer (talk) 02:50, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
