Google patents 'pedestrian glue' for cars

If you're unlucky enough to be hit by one of Google's self-driving cars, the company wants you to stay glued to the front of it, according to a patent that's dated May 17—not April 1.

The patent describes an adhesive layer that "may be a very sticky material and operate in a manner similar to flypaper, or double-sided duct tape," designed to prevent pedestrians from further injury, the San Jose Mercury News reports.

First question that popped into my mind was "What if the pedestrian is hit facing the car and glues their face to the hood blocking their nostrils and mouth?"
