text: They started creating and thinking about driverless cars late 1950's , the first concpet car was made by general motors , the car ran on a special test track that allowed the car to follow it . another company tried a similare thing , but it worked with magnets in the road. so instead of the techonolgy begin in the car it was in the road , the system worked well , but it would be to expensive to replace all the current roads with this new one . It wouldnt be praticial for anybody.
