The computerised vehicles will be fitted with high-tech sensors and will 'refuse to be steered' into other objects. Volvo says they will be on sale to customers by 2020, but that some of the life-saving technology will be incorporated into its vehicles even earlier – from 2014 – it says read more at http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2242930/The-crashproof-car-Volvo-say-British-roads-years.html http:// 2 Likes

logica: Right. As if the sensors cannot become faulty. Always thinking like an Economist. They would have taking into consideration, the measures for faulty sensor; auto-replace sensors. Note that the car will not just have one sensor! On my opinion, it might have not less than 10 sensors. Finally, always think like a scientist. 1 Like |
