“Like I said there are too many limitations to fully auto mate driving. A simple lane change is going to always require human intervention just for safety reasons alone. They’re will be some limited applications but never fully auto.”

That’s simply not correct. It’s already being widely tested. Do some reading on the topic.

It is not a good idea to turn cheap affordable transportation into high tech expensive space ships. The average person will soon be priced out of the auto market. Many already are. The statists dream idea is to make cars so expensive that people will submit and live in urban socialist utopias. The only ones that will be able to drive are the rich. Henry Ford would be rolling in his grave.

As it stands right now most auto repairs are so expensive we live in a throw away world now, even for cars. As long as this is optional(which it won't be) it might have some use.

PS: are you really going to let go of the steering wheel of your 50,000 car going 80 mph?
