...what was the social urgency of a car that drives itself? It can't be about saving lives...industry doesn't work that way. It has to be what it always is; making money with some new technology because the old ones are petering out. At last year's annual Apple roll-out of new products all they had to offer was a watchband....

Driverless cars offer a whole new ride-to-the-bank for tech companies...not just the cars but all those gadgets they can sell you to while away the hours you sit in your car hoping all goes well....and not just with your car but all the others zooming past you.

It's a dumb idea....car manufacturers are recalling millions of cars for simple things like keys and transmissions and brakes and now they want to add a computer driver? really? All other problems with car manufacture were solved so we can play around with this ditzy idea?
