The fact that self driving cars exist is an admission that driving a car can really suck. Navigating busy suburbs and cities in a car is a stressful experience, especially when people are commuting to or from work.
I don’t think cars should be completely eliminated, as they have their place, but the existence of self driving cars is strong evidence of the insanity of the car being the only feasible way to get around some parts of the world.
Personally I don’t get the appeal of self driving cars maybe that’s because I enjoy driving manuals but in terms of making a city efficient you want ways to get around without a car in the first place with transportation like trains or bikes or just walking and for those who live in the middle of nowhere and in the future are going to be the last people to drive cars to get around those folks tend to be car guys and car guys like to be in control of the car hence why a lot of them drive stick shift when automatic exists all around if we as a society evolve in a utopian direction self driving cars are a solution without a problem to fix not to mention how many of the corpos that are likely to make these cars they are most sertanly going to put some sort of spy ware that a few will get up into arms about
I couldn’t agree more.
