LOS ANGELES (AP) — Google says that cars it has 
programmed to drive themselves have started to 
master the navigation of city streets and the 
challenges they bring, from jaywalkers to weaving bicyclists — a critical milestone for any commercially
 available self-driving car technology.
Despite the progress over the past year, the cars 
have plenty of learning to do before 2017, when 
the Silicon Valley tech giant hopes to get the 
technology to the public. 
The promise is that, eventually, there would be no need for a driver.
None of the traditional automakers has been so 
bullish. 
Instead, they have rolled out features 
incrementally, including technology that brakes 
and accelerates in stop-and-go traffic or keeps cars 
in their lanes.
