text: In 2013, BMW announced the development of "Traffic Jam Assistant." The car can handles driving functions at speeds of up to 25 mph, while touch sensors make sure the driver keeps hold of the wheel in case of complex driving issues or a collision or near-collision. None of the cars developed today are completely driverless. They can do basic driving functions such as steering, accelerating, amd braking themselves, but are designed to notify the driver when he/she should take the wheel. This means the human driver must remain alert in case he/she should have to take over.
