wouldn't this mean all cars would have to be nearly identical? It's not a
smart thought, there would be more mechanical problems to go wrong than
with your standard vehicle, not mention kids possible messing with all the
supposed "buttons" you speak of. There's just too much to go wrong. - Jeremiah Hill
I think the transportation industry is one place where automation can have
a revolutionary impact in the near future. Self-driving cars is a large
piece of that big picture. The goal should be to bring about the same kind
of impact to the movement of physical goods and people, that we did to
communication in the last 20 years with the internet and mobile phones. - Abhishek Kumar
The efficiency in the visualization of cars turning into "trains" @ 0:56 is
pretty awesome. Now when do we get flying cars? - Okay Samurai
no nazis...we are not giving up our rights to control our vehicle....kill
yourselves - Aquaponics Smith
My only issue is he said he wish's he would be around in 200 years to see
this technology come to fruition. Maybe I'm crazy, but in the LAST 200
years we've gone from horse and buggy and believing that Demons cause
disease to a Space Station and actively moving forward with maned
expeditions to Mars. If self driving cars aren't common in 20 years THAT
would be the surprise! - tecnoblix
Sounds cool but you'll always have that one "Ricky Bobby" asshole that
wants to go fast and starts swerving through traffic and cutting people
off. Also, the people who are too scared to merge correctly. So they come
to a full stop on a yield. Though, if the cars don't have a manual driving
option, it might force them to drive correctly. We'll see, I guess. - Johnny Zavala
Your NUTS!!!!
Next they'll be something crazy like unmanned drones flying around
murdering people!! Or a black communist US President, that millions of
idiots voted in twice!!!!

If they make self driving cars then lots of people will lose there jobs AND
we won't ever learn how to drive and what if you can't afford a new car
what will happen then??? - Sean B

If there's a "train," what happens when a car breaks down, or if there's an
accident? - Dave Sanchez
telecommute more - Fish Kungfu
I love his last statement so much! - Daniel Jutz
Self-driving cars would be cool, but I trust myself more than a robot when
it comes to handling a vehicle, regardless of how well developed it is. If
it does become the new common form of transportation, then there will be no
fun to be had when "driving" the car. Also, there are just so many factors
that need to be considered, such as other vehicles. Also, what about
roadside homeless people who you may want to give money to or the friends
that you see while driving who may need a lift? I would enjoy riding in
them, but not driving them. - CarGnome TheCritic
I don't think it will be possible to completely remove humans from the
process of driving a car, at least not with technology available now or in
the near future.
Look at aircraft for instance. Technology already exists that can automate
the whole flight from gate-to-gate at airports that are suitably equipped.
The potential is there for 100% computer controlled flights. Yet we still
have pilots, and we still have air traffic controllers. Why? Because when
things go wrong, there are certain decisions a computer is incapable of
making.
Now with a car... there is a lot more potential for things to go wrong.
With aircraft, there is far less potential for collisions with objects and
other traffic. There is no such thing as potholes or slippery roads. There
is a lot more space and time to maneuver in the air than on a busy road. So
in a way, safe automated driving is significantly more complex to achieve
than auto-flight systems. The guy in the video gave a perfect example with
the plastic bag floating across the road. How does a computer react when
faced with a situation it hasn't been programmed to handle? Only humans can
make these spur of the moment decisions.
What I'm getting at, is that even with a highly sophisticated self-driving
car of the future, there will still be a need for someone in the car to be
paying attention at all times in the event the computer encounters
something unforeseen.
Also a computer can't make moral type decisions, for example when an
accident is absolutely unavoidable but there are two possible outcomes.
Which does the computer choose? - MTTT3000

You have to consider the fact they could (have bugs or glitches) or people
can hack it. (Almost anything electronic can be hacked) - Shurikan Games
cool but me personally would keep pressing the buttons to be a troll - legalosmumakilslayer
The only problem is if there is no failsafe and a car stops in one of those
trains then there could be a HUGE traffic jam. - John Matusiak
When people have to get out how would the cars know of all cars have to
stop for one to get in and say boston where rhere is non stop traffic how'd
that help? - Andy Hatch
