Alphabet Inc: Google Driverless Taxis Coming Soon


For people who need instant rides, first there were stage coaches, then horse and buggies, then taxis, followed by Uber. Now there are plans for cars that can take you places in the city without a guy in the front seat.

Google calls them autonomous vehicles, and after a million miles of testing, the next step is to practice pick-up service. According to reports, as early as a year from now, the first ones will be tried in non-busy traffic areas, such as office parks and limited access campuses.

If you think taxi driver Travis Bickle was crazy before, consider how homicidal he’ll be when he sees an autonomous Google take a customer away from him.

Banff Resort

A great all-season hotel, the Banff Rocky Mountain Resort is in a beautiful setting in the heart of Canada’s Banff National Park. It’s especially beautiful in autumn, when the mountainsides all around burst with red, orange and red leaves from the surrounding forests of elm, oak, aspen and birchwoods. In addition to luxurious accommodations, gourmet restaurants, pools, spas and typical Canadian hospitality, there are numerous other great features in the Alberta hotel’s vicinity. The resort offers championship golf courses in summer and autumn, and nearby mountain ski adventures in winter.
