Toyota has released video of its new driverless car. real car will be on show at electronics show in Las Vegas, USA. car is full of special "intelligent" safety features to make sure it does not crash. It uses radars and video cameras to understand where other cars are. It can also "see" people and slow down to avoid hitting them. car can also communicate with other cars that have same technology. Toyota spokesperson said: "We're looking at car that would eliminate crashes. Zero collisions is our ultimate aim." He added that car should be used with driver, but that it can also drive itself. This would be useful if the driver wants to use his or her laptop, or falls asleep.

Toyota is not first car maker to showcase self-driving cars. In May 2012, Swedish company Volvo tested self-drive convoy of cars on Spanish highway. search engine Google has also invested lot of money in technology for these cars. German auto manufacturers Audi and Mercedes are also developing similar cars. chairman of Ford Motor Company, Bill Ford Jr., said these cars will reduce traffic jams in future.
