Google and Volvo have them already, and now also Hyundai threw themselves on self-directed wave. In a publicity stunt they put their new driver support system to the test. See the video.

car called police
Technical driver support, also known as ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) , is designed to help the driver as much as possible in the actual execution, as well as minimizing the risk of traffic accidents. This may include blind spot warning, automatic parking and traffic sign recognition.
Such technology is already prevalent in newer cars. Earlier this year there was a driverless BMW in smoke, at Drammen, who rolled off and contact the police even after it crashed through a fence.

Available during the decade
Justin Rattner, outgoing chief technology department at Intel, a U.S. manufacturer of microprocessors, claims that driverless cars will be available to the average car owner during the next decade.
And it is certainly not one has to wait for so long. Already in May, the Google test runs of the autonomous vehicle for select audiences.
The driverless car is still in the prototype stage, but I think that it can go into production as early as 2017.
