I for one, welcome our new robotic car overlords ~ Melanie Schultz van Haegen-Geesteranus, 16-06-2014.

Although the car manufacturers already for a long time tumble over one another to try was the very first autonomous car to make it feel the Dutch government, the urge to achieve this ambition, force by to speak for a wave of self-propelled cars.

Minister Schultz sees for the Netherlands a pioneering role to play in the autonomous revolution, and will soon begin trials on the way, and sets them on the official channel of her ministry. If you ask us this is already happening, both with cars and with trucks, but of course it can’t hurt to have an extra pendulum.

In the video above, we see Schultz’ autonomous Prius-ride, which last year took place, and apparently tasted that more. In 2009 we tried it with an electric car, but that picked up was apparently not great, so but to the autonomous car. Because innovate, that we will, with our small country.

“The era of the self-propelled car is reached. I wish that we as the Netherlands are not only ready, but also internationally first walk in this innovative development,” says Schultz. She wants to start next year a bill to make, that the framework for the autonomous car have to describe. Skynet in 3..2..1..

If the test is the number of half-soles with 60 per hour on motorways insert and without mirroring of lane changes reduce may we the there only but agree. Go, Schultz!
