Finally, a fun use for autonomous cars.
According to the Toyota Research Institute (TRI) website, "engineers are conducting research into how to bring together the instincts of professional drivers and automated driving technology. Their goal is to design a new level of active safety technology and share it broadly so that Toyota and other auto manufacturers can deploy it on the road."
According to us, they've found the perfect way of mixing important work with unadulterated fun by taking a prototype racing Toyota GR Supra and having it drift using autonomous driving technology. Oh, and they made a video of it.
