Comments on: Driverless Taxis to Debut in UAE http://cuppalife.com/life-in-uae/driverless-taxis-in-uae/ Life and times of a twenty something freelance writer in UAE Sun, 05 Sep 2010 20:58:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Samar http://cuppalife.com/life-in-uae/driverless-taxis-in-uae/comment-page-1/#comment-14 Samar Thu, 12 Feb 2009 10:59:52 +0000 http://cuppalife.com/?p=121#comment-14 That's a question on everyone's mind. I doubt if they'll be able to roll the taxi's out on a mass scale. They'll have set stops and the people will have to swipe a card or punch a stop number or some such thing.

Welcome! :D They're supposed to have sensors around them or some such thing. Also, the taxis would be running on a train like track. There was also a rumour of them running underground. Let's see what happens when they start :) Btw, Heathrow airport has similar taxis that takes travellers to their cars or taxis from the airport. Sal! Welcome! :D
