These are practical applications of driverless technology because they operate in fully controlled environments where interactions with unexpected externalities are very limited.

P.S. I'm pretty sure those locomotives in the nearby switching yard aren't exactly "driverless." It's just that the "driver" isn't in the locomotive. They're operated by remote control.

Yeah I can see the practical aspects of driverless cars but they’re very limited unless all are forced to use them. I can think of times when I might enjoy just riding and enjoying the scenery but I want the choice.
