A Range Rover Sport has completed the first ever self-driving lap on one of the UK’s most challenging roads,the Coventry Ring Road.

The prototype self-driving Range Rover Sport with features like the navigation sensors, RADAR and LIDAR , can now autonomously handle roundabouts,traffic lights, pedestrians, cyclists, change lanes, merge with traffic and exit junctions at the speed limit of 40mph. It can also park itself.





But why on Coventry road?
Jaguar Land Rover Autonomous Vehicle Research Manager said :

“The Coventry Ring Road is known for its complicated slip roads and exits. It makes for very challenging conditions, especially when under pressure in the rush hour"

“Our self-driving car is not impacted by the same pressure, frustrations or fatigue that a driver may experience and so it’s capable of turning a potentially very stressful situation into a completely stress-free one"


This test is part of the £20 million "UK Autodrive" government-funded project which ends this month after a three-year programme.

So No hands No problem on any kind of roads with this futuristic self-driving Range Rover sport...

What do you think?

it's really deep when i think about the fact that people are gonna worship a computer program, you don't worship it you die. When you watch sci-fi movies then you'll understand that these are Lucifers prophecy getting ready to be fulfilled.
Isaiah 2:8-9 KJVS
Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made: [9] And the mean man boweth down, and the great man humbleth himself: therefore forgive them not.
Revelation 13:15 KJVS
And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Jeremiah 1:16 KJVS
And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.
