Twitter-Fueled Silver Arrow

2011 Mercedes-Benz CL550 4Matic Sport

Every day, car companies are continuously trying to improve their cars by adding more technology to them making them easier to drive. Mercedes have amped it up a notch. With new system wirings and new technology, they've come up with something that doesn't even need a driver at all: Twitter. Yep, the video you see below is the video of a man controlling a CL550 4Matic via Twitter by giving it simple commands like GO Forward, Turn Right, Turn Left, Reverse Left. What made these tweets different from others is that he added @MBrCarTest then a hash tag then his command to his tweet. He had some much, he even attempted to park it next to a very expensive Gullwinged car. See the action and science take place below.
