CURRENTLY 
"implicit - Set the amount of time the driver should wait when searching for elements. When searching for a single element, the driver should poll the page until an element is found or the timeout expires, whichever occurs first. When searching for multiple elements, the driver should poll the page until at least one element is found or the timeout expires, at which point it should return an empty list."

EXPECTED:
implicit - Set the amount of time the driver SHOULD wait when searching for elements. When searching for a single element, the driver should poll the page until an element is found or the timeout expires, whichever occurs first. When searching for multiple elements, the driver should poll the page until at least one element is found or the timeout expires. If the timeout expires before the driver has finished polling the page, the driver MUST return a "<code><a href="#status-timeout">timeout</a></code>" response.
