Chris Urmson, the lead of Google&#x27;s project. He avoids mentioning the real limitations and roadblocks self-driving cars has, and continually talks about how he never wants his son to have a driver&#x27;s license. He talks more fluff than substance, and he&#x27;s misrepresented Google&#x27;s progress pretty heavily. He&#x27;s a great marketing voice for Google, but I have found very little merit to what he has to say.<p>When you actually look at the hard numbers, or other companies&#x27; more realistic progress reports, it paints a very different picture.
