I had to rent a car the other day for a couple days, and it was self driving, and I didn’t know how to get it out of that mode and I didn’t wanna mess it up before I took it back so every now and then I would be in my lane and I would try to go into another lane and then the car would literally fight me and go back in the same lane. It was just the stupidest thing in the world I’ve ever seen

One of the main causes of slow traffic is everyone performing constant lane changes.

If all cars were self-driving, and the cars cooperated, all tied to a singular hive mind, everyone would arrive at their destinations quicker.

You really should learn to use your turn signals to change lanes.

That was why the vehicle was fighting you.

When I rent a car I take an extra day just to figure out how things work.
