There are privacy concerns that need to be addressed.

Still, I'd love to go out boozing all night then tell my car to drive me to Miami. Wake up on the beach!

This is great news for the 80 and above crowd. IF they really end up being very reliable, it could save a lot of people losing drivers licenses. I like this a lot. BUT, they are really going to have to make them perfect and precise. I can’t tell you how many times my GPS wants to to go down a one-way street.

Yeah but what about the driverless cars made for women? Will they automatically crash?

Lol, I had NO IDEA that Google had racked up 300,000 miles on their driverless cars! With no accidents, yet. Wow, it sounds like it’s just around the corner.

Will the driverless cars made for seniors have permanently blinking left turn signals?

Yes and they will only go a maximum 30 mph on the highway.

That's the problem.

Officer, I swear I didn't see that car, it came out of nowhere from around the corner!

By 2025, I'm gonna be getting close. :-(

But yes, great news. It'll allow us old fogies to remain independent that much longer, which I'm lovin'!

Well, brainless politicians are mainstream already - and nothing much has changed. :)
