Ford has a very ambitious leap of faith in undertaking this new path, as it speaks of cars that would not only give driving assistance but would solely take over the entire driving experience, thanks to its ambitious fully autonomous technology.

Google has proven that this is a possibility as what most of us can see with the podmobiles that are out on the roads. However, with regards to how Ford sees the plan, it wants to make it a full package by not requiring the driver to move a muscle to drive, but to simply relax.

Mark Fields, the CEO of Ford made a surprising announcement in Silicon Valley as he showcases to the world how the company has revolutionized transportation. The company's great reputation starting off as one of the first automobiles in history, and now possibly revolutionizing again transportation with innovative ways to make autonomous driving a reality for everyone.

Raj Nair, the global product head of Ford, states in the event an ironic message as the company is finding it difficult to improve safety, it tries to remove the driver out of the equation, thereby making it safe. The traditional auto industry is sure to undergo a new revolution as Ford is known to not play temporary gimmicks but instead, aims to make it truly wide scale.

The self-driving features and software technologies that are equipped inside Tesla vehicles are likely to be a far cry from that of Ford's plans. Ford partners with General Motors as it acquires Cruise Automation, is sure to catapult the company into greater heights with its innovative plans.

Ford is proving to the world that it is very adaptive to the circumstances, as it survives the financial crisis, and now thrives in the world auto market. One thing that makes Ford a real game changer is its hopes of making autonomous driving a reality not for a few rich people, but for everyone.
