Default World's Smallest Car

You couldn't build a smaller car," says Jim Tour, professor of chemistry and leader of the Rice University research team. The Nanocar is built of a single molecule, and it's impossible to assemble anything smaller than an individual molecule.

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1875217,00.asp

If you watch the movie (15MB AVI) Tour and his team recorded, you will see the first Nanocar collision in history. (Hint: The Nanocar looks like four light dots traveling across the field. Keep an eye on the two Nanocars in the top-left portion of the movie.)
