The federal government's highway safety agency agrees with Google: Computers that will control the cars of the future can be considered their driver. The redefinition of "driver" is an important break for Google. Companies like Visteon (NYSE: VC), which makes infotainment systems and connected car solutions, is already working with leading automakers like Ford, Mazda, Renault/Nissan, GM, Jaguar Land Rover, Honda, BMW, Daimler, PSA and Volkswagen. The company is working on making it easier for automakers to update apps in cars but also add a layer of cyber security to the infotainment system. More apps in cars mean more cybersecurity threats.
