Vince Cable says UK will have 'fleets' of driverless cars as he admits he doesn't even own a Sat Nav

[mike_field]

New driverless technology will see "fleets" of satellite controlled vehicles on Britain's roads within years, Vince Cable has claimed as he admits he doesn't even have a basic SatNav device installed in his own car.

The Business Secretary has announced that new measures would see driverless cars “take to our streets in less than six months” as he said some cars could have automated technology - such as driverless parking - built in even sooner.

Can't be any worse that some of the idiots I come across on the roads.........

You've seen how I type when I'm not paying attention, imagine me on the roads where I don't need to pay attention lol

Will this do away with the need for a driving licence I wonder

 

[mike_field]

Nah, they'll still find someway to charge and tax driverless drivers no doubt.

What does Vince Cable's lack of a sat nav have to do with anything? I'm sure he has a driver so he doesn't need one. Besides, his ministerial car probably has it as standard.
