Toyota enter the driverless car race

As some of you will know Google are leading the way in the new generation of cars that will change the world... the driverless car. However, other firms are doing their bit also and the latest to throw their hats into the ring are Japanese giants and soon to be number 1 car maker in the world (again)... Toyota.

Toyota has given a taste of self-drive car safety technology ahead of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas next week. The car maker revealed a video clip of a Lexus fitted with safety features designed to minimise car crashes.

The technology includes on-board radar and video cameras to monitor the road, the surroundings, and the driver. The car can also communicate with other vehicles, according to a Toyota spokesman.
