Even with perfect automated driving, I will get behind the wheel. Driving is a Zen experience that gives myself and many people joy.

We don't all live in the suburban highway hellscape. Try going for a mountain or coastal-cliff drive. I bet you'd smile.

Automatic driving is just 3 years away!

As soon as linux is ready for desktop !

Everybody who has a car is driving. Do people really still think level 5 is just around the corner?

Level 5 isn’t right around the corner, but “navigating an entire GPS route on city streets for 30 minutes with fewer than 5 disengagements/interventions” is present day consumer technology.

As we speak right now there are robo-cabs driving themselves on the streets of San Francisco. Of course, they’re not perfect.

Maybe self-driving is further away than we initially thought and certainly further away than Elmo promised, but anyone who who runs a car company and thinks that humans will drive themselves in 10-20 years is being willfully ignorant.

Some people, (like me), like to drive. If any demographic is driving in your robo future, it's people purposely buying manual cars.

Not every road is paved and able to be handled by a computer. Some people also like to drive.
