There's nothing scarier than driving in KL, well except being driven in KL, by an autonomous car. You heard that right, a car that drives itself. Autonomous cars are not a new thing, and in other parts of the world, they are actually viable. As you can see in the picture of a German car, there is a smorgasbord of technology to make sure you are not driven into a lake somewhere.

These crazy germans did what any self respecting geek would do, they connected it up to an iPad. Basically, how it works is that the iPad's GPS locator sends information to the car and the Autonomous car drives its way to your location. Not only that, the iPad wielding geek can also track the location of the car as it makes it way to you. If only you could hook up real racing to the cars controls.

Aside from the obvious safety issues that may plague this system and the fact that roads are not always so empty and congestion free, this is a great concept. Will it ever come to Malaysia? Check out the jam on the Federal everyday and you have your answer.
