Not me.

I remember all the articles about the flying cars that were in our future back in the 1960’s. Where did that nonsense go? hee hee hee

The driverless cars are going to be similar. It will work in limited local situations. Globally? Forget it.

Yes, at first.

Eventually there will be roads that only allow driverless cars because the cars will be able to coordinate with each other and make split second decisions that would not be possible if any of the cars were controlled by humans. Traffic lights would be unneccessary because the cars would simply weave around each other like a bunch of ballet dancers.

Eventually, there will be no public roads which will allow manually driven vehicles.
