English town gives driverless car a try

The BBC is running this story about the town of Daventry in Northamptonshire that is testing a driverless car in an effort to increase the use of public transportation and reduce the reliance on cars? I'll assume the Cybercar is more efficient than your average vehicle for at least part of that logic to hold true. The Cybercar can be called by pressing a button on their route, and will go direct to their destination. They require a light track to operate and are designed for low speed, short distance trips. If only they had a robotic cabbie in the front seat and were called "Johnny Cab"!
