 Google has had a run-in with the law over one of its self-driving cars in Los Altos, California.

The vehicle was pulled over by a police officer for dangerous driving – but not for speeding or knocking over a pedestrian, as you might assume. In fact, the police officer had a word with the user because the car was actually driving too slowly, at only 25 mph.

We’ve capped the speed of our prototype vehicles at 25mph for safety reasons. We want them to feel friendly and approachable, rather than zooming scarily through neighborhood streets."

I'm not quite sure if that is a good or a bad thing. :)
