I need a driverless car to avoid parking downtown.
Just let the car circle the block as I run errands.
Cars have been soulless for years. No character what so ever.
Did you see the video of the driverless car that killed the woman? The driver wasn’t paying the least bit of attention to the road. People will be asleep or playing on the iphones when behind the wheel and won’t wake up when their car crashes them into the side of a building or a mom mobile with six kids.
The pinnacle of stupid, more like it.
Good article except for the “wee the USA” typo. Har!!
If you’re gonna have “road songs” you have to include THE road song:

An America that is lost and never coming back.
First of all, why the obsession with GM?
OK, now more to the point.
Do these cars know when there is a cliff they should avoid? Will someone direct it to go on those crazy cliff-ridden roads in CA and it makes a slight mistake beyond the lines and then goes over the cliff? Never mind the other side where it might run into the cliff face...but I assume it can “see” the wall so not as risky as the chasm on the other side.
They’ll go over big with the I-Phone set that must be on the phone every waking moment of the day. The ones with the phone lag bolted to a cramped, deformed hand.
In the liberal vision of the future there is no private ownership of cars, driverless or otherwise.
IOW, self-driving cars won’t be available for purchase for the ordinary Joe or Jane.
I used to think anyone driving cars with automatic transmissions were wusses. I’m more tolerant today, but this abomination is just plain bad.

What else would we expect from the coddled generation?
Idiocracy was a documentary: A tube up the butt, one down the throat, and chronic masturbation.
I don’t mind “Driverless” or unmanned buses over large areas of large cities. That’s a matter of utility and expedience. I do mind the prospect of having to use driverless private vehicles all the time to travel as one person. There are moments when I sort of like driving, and the ability to stop or go as I please. What was it they used to call this?
Oh yes “Joy Riding!”
Hipsters and the Techie-Crowd...they are a scourge on our society.
Finally somebody said it.
Steve McQueen & Paul Newman must be rolling over in their graves
This article would be a total waste of time. A crap load of disinformation. Except they had pictures of great cars.
Absolutely right. marxists want to make everyone equally miserable and subject to the dictates of the government (except for the ruling elite, which is exempt.) The “driverless” car will force everyone to obey the commands of an algorithm, which will have been duly studied and approved by the proper government authority.
BTW, how do these things work in tunnels or big parking garages? No sat/no cell.
I disagree... and see automation as a way of not needing cheap imported labor
