If the car was impeeding traffic why did he not give a ticket? If the car was not impeeding traffic why did the clown stop the car and discuss the non issue?

Who is to say that if there was a driver, they wouldn't have been ticketed? You don't issue tickets to inanimate objects, you issue them to people. The person driving to be specific. As the passenger wasn't driving, they couldn't have been ticketed. There wasn't anyone to issue the ticket to. This is one of those cases where the law has not yet caught up with the technology. When miniature cameras first appeared it was legal to stick them on your shoe and take pictures up strange women's skirts. The law prohibiting this didn't get passed for months afterward. Or drone technology where suddenly new laws are being passed to prevent drones flying in commercial airspace or over stadiums. The debate about trying to take pictures of underaged females through their windows is still going on and how to protect the minors. If Mountain View is where the driverless car prototype will be tested, I'd be surprised if they don't add laws to address this shortly.

Pretty sure google is the operator of the car whether they are in the driver seat or not. Looks to me the cop was just being nosey.

Google is a corporation, not in possession of a driver's license. I don't see who he could have issued a ticket to. Although wouldn't it be weird to be in traffic court and have the case before yours involve a dozen high priced lawyers arguing that since nobody drove it, just a computer, they were above the law?

The ceo would be the most logical first choice...next the entire board of directors...next all the stock holders.

Pretty sure judge ito would call for a "side bar"[:D]

Next time I get stopped speeding at 98 mph in a 60 mph zone . . . I am jumping in the passenger seat and telling him it's a driverless car and there was an operating system error. Make the ticket out to Google [:D]

No shit...I mean it is more than dooable if you stand your ground and have your laptop out and furriously banging away on the keyboard while swearing just audibly. I am thinking something a bit above 50/50.

Great Idea???? is that what you think???????? the remote controlled car is governed at 25MPH max, and RS just got his license suspended for going 100 MPH,plus 6 months in county jail for wrekless driving, and $5000 fine. congrates RS.

There might have been a computer involved but there was a human running that computer.
