@Obscurequokka I’d rather ride my bike and see more money going into public works projects that promoted cycling and public transit. I hate driving, and I don’t think a self-driving car would make me like it any more.

That said, if it meant I could get rid of my car, that’s not so bad. I don’t think personal self-driving cars are going to fix anything that I care about (congestion, all the space used to park cars, etc).

Those are fair points.
Congestion and a clean environment are two major issues that any driving tech should strive to solve.
I've heard utopian rumours of a self driving, optimized, on-demand fleet of cars, running 100% on renewable tech. But after seeing over a dozen cycles of tech hype, I have become wary of them, if not downright jaded.
