I also had a story about a embarrassingly deceptive anti-Romney ad. It involves the burning question of whether you should hug your garbageman. The ad was so stupid that even Current TV’s The Young Turks made fun of it.

Last week, that changed when California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill that cleared a path for these robots to become street legal. It’s a big boost for the technology, but there are obstacles to overcome before self-driving cars are cruising down Santa Monica Boulevard.

When I went for a ride in Google’s self-driving, robotic car last winter, there were still a few things these robots couldn’t do — like reverse.
