text: So far driverless cars can steer, break, accelerate,and drive themselves. The only problem is that you would have to be able to take over the wheel,if the driverless car is not able to do something it can not do. If driverless cars were to be available now, you would only be able to ride if you can drive a car and able to take over the wheel at anytime. It is safe because the car will alert you if you would have to take over.
