Pfftt, when that happens, I'll still have my good ole "Earth killing", not ECO friendly gas guzzlers in the garage and I'll get gas from pirates if I need to.... they'll take them from my cold dead hands!

My thoughts exactly. I may like a smooth, quiet, cocoon-like car that isolates one from the road surface....but I still want to be in control of it.

At some point, likely within our lifetime, driving yourself will just be straight up illegal in a lot of places. The piloted car with become like horses are now — toys for the super rich.

Yeah, I'll put my finger on that......the middle one LOL.


Seriously, I do envision one possible good use for self-driving cars....they can ultimately help people who are otherwise too old or infirm to drive to keep their independence longer or require less assistance in day-to-day life (and, let's face it........none of us are getting any younger).

Driverless cars might be fine - if they're confined to their own roads. AI doesn't mix well with human intelligence (or lack of it).
