I would prefer to drive my own car. Cruise control is enough technowizbangery for me. But who knows what the future holds?

I think automated interstates would be cool. Just picture it...closely spaced traffic screaming along at a constant speed. No traffic jams. No asshole rubbernecking at accidents and dragging everything down to a craw for miles. You just read a book and relax until you get there.

I'm still happy to drive around town and on the back roads.

That's just it. Idiots tailgate. And then everyone behind them gets to pay the price.

I think we're setting the bar pretty low, asking robots to drive cars. People are exceptionally bad at it.

What makes me nervous is icy weather. That sort of driving is half about seat of the pants stuff.

in tesla's car it can be overriden by human input, whether it be braking or moving the steering wheel or turning off the system entirely. in google's concept cars, there are no controls for a human to override.

i think "road hazards" are actually the thing it will be exceptional at, not fail. "stuff on the road" like, a fallen tree, or debris from an accident in front of it, etc... it will have better reaction times and able to "see" everything much better than a human because it's pinging everything around it constantly and able to react swiftly. there are many cars on the market today with this kind of feature, where they react to danger faster than you. they aren't autonomously driving, but if you don't react when you should the car starts braking for you

i agree with spider that ice would be more difficult. you can "just feel" when it's icy and you drive different as a result. like all things that are like that in the human experience, those intuitiony things, it's difficult to code.
