This is one news story that will surely anger Donald Trump: China is set to beat the U.S. in the race to self-driving cars.It seems like China's always claiming the top spot for something, and the latest we're hearing from the country is that they have their sights set on self driving cars - and soon. And if recent history has taught us anything, it's that once the Chinese set out to do something, it's only a matter of time until they do.In the past few decades, car sales have spiked in China, a country where once the scooter and bike were the only way to get around. Now there are millions of vehicles clogging the roads everywhere.The car has become a status symbol, and many middle class Chinese are racing to have the newest, shiniest models. One of the major problems with the current transport model in China is that traffic jams sometimes back up commuters for tens of miles, and it can take hours to get through it. In one particularly awful incident in 2010 (pictured above), traffic was backed up for 60 miles and it took some drivers five days to get through. Five. days. Can you imagine being stuck there for that long?The New York Times recently reported on the work of Gasha Wu, a Chinese engineer who's been working tirelessly to develop autonomous cars. Wu's work was not without an echo, as Kai-Fu Lee, the former Google head in China observes:
