Thursday was another setback for the
emerging technology of self-driving car as one of Google’s prototypes cars was
involved in an injury accident.
The first accident since Google began
the test running. In the collision, a Lexus SUV that the tech giant outfitted
with sensors and cameras was rear-ended in Google's home city of Mountain View,
where more than 20 prototypes have been self-maneuvering through traffic,
according to Associated Press (AP).

The
three Google employees on board complained of minor whiplash, were checked out
at a hospital and were cleared to go back to work following the collision,
Google said. The driver of the other car also complained of neck and back pain.
