German transport company Deutsche Bahn trialled the self-driving vehicle on Wednesday 25/10/2017 , delivering townspeople on a 700-metre route between the train station, the town centre, and the Birnbacher baths. Designed by French startup company EasyMile, the electric vehicle,called EasyTen autonomously navigated its way through the municipality of Bad Birnbach by way of sensors, lasers and GPS systems which can detect obstacles and activate brakes. 6 Likes 3 Shares obafemee80(m): 11:12pm On Oct 30, 2017 [img]http:///a/img923/6408/FHccGj.jpg[/img] [img]http:///a/img922/5946/zhv0KZ.jpg[/img]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ak2VZKYYadQ The vehicle moves along a pre-programmed route with its speed initially limited to 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) per hour on a road with a 30 kph speed limit. Also, the bus is not yet capable of avoiding obstacles on its own. In case of an emergency, such as a car wrongly parked on the route, a human can take control of the bus by using a joystick. Deutsche Bahn aims to develop the autonomous minibus further in the future, where it will act like a private car service to pick up engers upon request from their home through an app.  It could also collect other travellers en route who also require the service. While EasyTen is the first vehicle of its kind to hit the roads in , the rail company plans to release more similar buses from 2018 in several German towns and cities, such as Hamburg. Autonomy is a fast growing technology,with leading companies like Renault and BMW recently unveiling self-driving and electric concept vehicles.

Our socio-ethnic and religious diversity affect our reasoning so much we can't agree on anything. To compete with the rest of the world, we need to restructure or disintegrate. has 79% Germans and 21% other ethnic groups. 60% of the people living in (locals and immigrants) are Christians while the remaining 40% are spread over 1000 different religions. Nigeria has 521 languages, with no single ethnic group over 38%. There's no majority of ANY idea in Nigeria. Christianity nor Islam do not control above 45% of religious ideas. There's nothing that brings 51% of Nigerians together, maybe football though. 25 Likes 3 Shares Re: 's First-Ever Driverless Bus Hits The Roads In Bavaria-Pics/Video by Nobody: 7:15am On Oct 31, 2017 We are here celebrating 5 pointer GPAs 11 Likes Hades2016(m): 7:16am On Oct 31, 2017 Nigeria my country which way 4 Likes iamnicer: 7:16am On Oct 31, 2017 WHENEVER I REMEBER AM STILL A NIGERIAN I BE LIKE 15 Likes Oloruntobi4382(m): 7:17am On Oct 31, 2017 See that guy on bicycle....Mtcheeew webincomeplus(m): 7:17am On Oct 31, 2017 Meanwhile, here in Nigeria, some people are still trying to invent a potent voodoo that will fly them invisibly to countries like UAE, US, UK, Canada, etc. The available versions of that voodoo can only fly you into a nearby bush or dunghill and back to your home. So, ideas are welcome for the international version. 4 Likes 1 Share Lomprico2: 7:20am On Oct 31, 2017 Civilised humans! 1 Like dtruth50: 7:21am On Oct 31, 2017 It really surprises me when I see another development in another country, and we Nigerians start thinking negatively about Nigeria and calling her names.
