“without a human driver.” does not equal invisible.

Me cutting off some slow poke doesn’t depend on whoever’s driving (or not)!

I’ve seen driverless cars on the streets of LA. They have a dome on the roof, and when you look inside, they are empty and no one is at the wheel. Very creepy.

That raises a question. Are these things going to drive at the exact speed limit on the freeway? Very few drivers do. I can see them in a row hogging every lane and causing massive jams because no one can pass.
