    Driverless cars will NOT be safe until every car is autonomous. It is the bad/a$$hole drivers out there who are the real risk and gunrack pickup trucks.

    You can have my steering wheel when you pry it from my cold, dead hands!

    Hope to hell they use Linux as the computer's OS. Last thing I need is to have to grab the passenger door handle, kick the rear tire and jiggle the antenna to reboot it when the damn thing blue-screens on me.

    Worse yet, just when a hurricane is coming and they order us to evac...THAT'S when it'll want to reboot for an hour to install updates.
