Yeah people suck at driving, but they’ll just get worse while the automation is being ironed out and eventually they won’t know how to drive at all. What about an emergency situation that the automated cars and/or roads aren’t programmed for?
It's almost like forcing a majority of the population to drive a 2 ton vehicle at over 60mph was a bad idea that has no real fix. Maybe we should make some changes so cars aren't the default mode of transportation anymore?
