Google car rear ended another vehicle with enough oomph to cause a chain reaction.

More recently, BI had this, mentioning several accidents involving self-driving cars. There are some details on the Delphi car, but none on the rest:

The Delphi one seems hard to blame on the car with or without the human driver. If you are waiting to make a left turn and someone drives into you, well.

May update later.

ETA: No accident here. Kinda wacky! Stunt people platoon some Hyundais to see if the accident avoidance system works as advertised.
