Google's driverless car will need more testing, watchdog group warns

A consumer group wants the California Department of Motor Vehicles to slow Google’s rush to get driverless cars on the road.

Consumer Watchdog said the state’s regulations don’t allow enough time to test the self-driving cars before allowing them on California streets and highways.

“We urge the DMV to follow a sensible and deliberate approach that would require adequate testing and time to analyze the test results,” wrote John M. Simpson, Consumer Watchdog’s Privacy Project director, in a letter to DMV Director Jean Shiomoto.
