If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Its not for me as I wouldn't want to leave my life in the control of a computer on wheels when there are also other idiots on the road that aren't on a leash
Every day, thousands of innocent plants are killed by vegetarians.

I think that's just initial suspicion. It was the same when .NET came out, I was convinced that the garbage collector was the work of the devil, but it turns out if can do the job much more reliably than I can.
This is why the trials will be so interesting. If people have confidence in the safety its just one less thing to do. You could sleep, read, watch TV, have breakfast, entertain the missus all on the way to work. Awesome. I'd like one with a bath in it.

Don't get me wrong I shall be watching the whole driver-less cars technology with great interest.
But after driving around Oxfordshire they take careless driving up a notch or 2 and that is the part that worries me, how could you evade an idiot who decided to run a roundabout because he was texting or running late? I have seen some people in Jags on the Morton in Marsh roundabouts tussle with a truck because they don't want to wait for it to turn right.

DLR anyone?
Autopilot on your 747?
FFS, real time decision processing is a pretty well understood concept within the spheres of computer science. Just do it, get going and put it in an all-electric car too!

In knowing that man makes so much errors computer driven cars are a good idea.
"Test driven development" will get a new meaning.

One little detail that people tend to want to ignore is that personal transport has reached ridiculous levels of wastage, both in resource usage and loss of life.
So yes, computerise it all, and take the prestige and sense of personal power out of driving. The world will be better for it.

Yep, that hurts, isn't it?
It happens to me all the time. In fact, there aren't many CCCs which I can solve and the ones I actually can, get answered in no time.
