can see personal ownership going down as it would be a waste to have it stay in your drive-way 90% of the time. would rather enjoy being able to sleep, work or drink while the car drives. take a nap and wake up somewhere else. traffic jams would be a thing of the past.

theres an autonomous google car, that is circulating around their headquarters, and its zero failure to this day, nothing compared to human drivers.
i think it would be great, would solve a lot of traffic problems, taxi drivers will be pissed about this tho

I like my %sGeorgesIV - I would buy 75% of one.sarahfailin
- This is one of the dumbest questions I've seen on QBN.ORAZAL

The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers estimates up to 75% of all vehicles will be autonomous by 2040.
Thoughts? Fears? Bring it on? Hell no? See any problems?
