There is a critical shortage of long haul truckers. Interstates between population centers should be a snap for driverless trucks.

Have the driverless car get over to the capitol building, where they can pick up some brainless passengers.

Yes, DC would be a fun place to operate driverless cars. When pedestrians in DC want to cross the street and the light is red or there is no crosswalk nearby, they simply jaywalk—and this seems to be the case from Brightwood to Wesley Heights. I know—when I worked in DC, I did it myself.

Driverless vehicles?

In Florida, we call them "blue hairs."

I too have encountered a cop who was giving incomprehensible hand signals.
He seemed to be amused by peoples confusion.
No amount of programming can prepare for that.

Sometimes I think having a robot run washington would do a better job....

No doubt it would, it would have to clean a LOT of house...

They are not DRIVERLESS. They are GOVERNMENT-DRIVEN.

You will go only where the government gives you permission to go.
