http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=S_eVE6KQ4Jg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - you can see the steering wheel for most of this run
There was some more posted recently on them that might interest some on here:

The first video in the article (part 2 of 3) is pretty cool. Part 3 was ok. Haven't watched part 1 yet.
There was an funny statement earlier by Eric Schmidt mentioned at http://www.autoblog.com/2011/09/29/googles-eric-schmidt-our-autonomous-cars-drive-better-than-you/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;:

And then Chairman Schmidt jumps in with this gem: "Our computers drive our cars better than you do when you're drunk. That's our starting point."
That's not a very high bar Mr. Schmidt, but we digress...
