New Driverless London Bus Proposal
File Under: Transport.
The London Times is reporting that London might have driverless buses in the near future.
The article is short but promising, outlining a rosy future with small 24 passenger capacity buses acting like large taxis with flexible routing and the ability to be summoned via a mobile phone message.
The proposal claims that it will have a couple of prototype buses by 2007, and the project leader has hinted that the perfect showcase for this system would be the Olympic games in 2012.
