Mercedes reveals its self-driving car of the future, a lounge on wheels

If it is, the car uses a high-precision laser system to project a virtual cross walk onto the road surface and speaks “Please go ahead.” (Hopefully using William Daniels’ voice.)

:D You know, it's getting to the point if an article/news story dealing with self-driving cars doesn't mention Knight Rider or KITT, I become extremely disappointed.

(The design of the exterior could use some work, however. Just my opinion on it.)

A reminder that there will be a two-part Knight Rider themed episode of Fast N' Loud at 9-11pm (EST) Monday night on the Discovery network.

In other news: (In case anyone hasn't heard.) On Monday, GM will announce that they're discontinuing their Pontiac line. Which is disheartening for many fans.

Let's hope GM makes it. And that maybe they can bring the brand back one day.
