People will just get fatter as they can devote 100% attention to eating while driving, rather than only the 80% attention to eating while driving now.
- it'll be more like 30% snapchat, 20% instagram, 20% facebook, 30% eatingKrassy

- this isn't going to end well, it's one thing for a hipster to be taken a few blocks to get his latte but this is people's livelyhoods we're talking about._niko
- truckers don't take this shit laying down, there will be mass highway protests, they'll shut everything down before they let this happen_niko
- it will put a lot of humans out of work that's for sure. There needs to be a smart way of converting these current drivers into new positions within the companylvl_13
- Good luck with that. No company has a problem laying off 10,000 people if that product is no longer needed. That's a LOT of truck drivers.formed
- I think it'll just happen. Evolve or die, as they say.formed
- It'll happen slowly. Someone retires or quits, they won't get replaced by another human.ETM
- Lets not forget the substantial cost in replacing a fleet.ETM

cadillac, mercedes and audi and a bunch of 2015 models now have advanced cruise control with driver assist which basically uses radar to keep distance from cars in front and behind.
The S7 above system changes lanes though. yea sounds pretty lame and boring for sure.

Not having to find parking would be a big advantage too. I'm assuming the cost will be significantly lower than taking a taxi? Or knowing Google maybe you will just be forced to watch ads as you drive or something.

I don't understand how people can not see how this would be better than what we have now. I drive 30 mins - 1 hr to work everyday. That's 1-2 hrs a day that I could be doing anything else. Even staring a shitty gifs and buzzfeed surveys would be a better use of my time than driving. We would go from 10's of thousands of driving deaths in the U.S, to just 10's and we would get places so much quicker. People will say "Well, what about public transporation?" Where I am it doesn't go to where I need to be, and even if it did I want the autonomy to go where I want, when I want.
- i like driving. and i like driving faster than 25 mph. and my office is 15 min away.sine

Is this driverless cars initiative some kind of "racialism" (as Ali G would say) towards Asians?

if the US continues to completely eschew mass transit this is really the only viable way to avoid having constant traffic gridlock in every major city.
