I think autopilot cars will be great. Now autonomous farm tractors, construction equipment or military equipment would be very dangerous & scary as hell if it were hacked by terrorist!

100 years? No. Driverless cars will be the majority before then. And those problems will be solved.Has little experience driving and/or working with computers.

I have no doubt. The government needs more people to die. Too many reaching retirement age and using retirement benefits.100 years? No. Driverless cars will be the majority before then. And those problems will be solved.Has little experience driving and/or working with computers.

In less than five years, you'll be able to buy a driverless car. In another ten years, the only way to buy a car that's not driverless is to buy a used car. It'll happen fast because of how much safer and efficient (e.g. no traffic jams) they will be. Insurance savings will pay for the feature.

You mean like the state police and federal cops that use face recognition cameras on their vehicles, it's been done for three years now, along with cameras on guardrails to take pics and track your movements..Its fucking scary.
Technology and the abuse that will come is, period.
Look at that iphone10. The facial recognition technology is AMAZING. But think of how it will be abused..
I understand i am cynical, but i also enjoy reality.
They will be a reality in less than a decade.Seeing that data suggest that they're safer compared to normal cars I'd say with a few decades of testing they should be ready.
Well, we do have a treasonous fat senile old orange clown as President, so you are correct on that issue.Ice road coming up on an unguarded train crossing.I want to see one in winter weather on ice HAHAHAHA
Sounds like our D.C. Leadership.
They will be a reality in less than a decade.
First road-tested driverless truck is legally allowed to hit the road in Nevada
Written by taar Posted June 1st, 2015
In fact, there is already a road-tested big rig truck that’s legally allowed to drive in the state of Nevada.
Early this month, Freightliner (a company owned by Daimler) unveiled the “Inspiration Truck” — a partially autonomous big rig commercial motor vehicle that’s touted for its ability to prevent truck crashes by mitigating driver truck driver fatigue and human stress.
Daimler says it has done more than 10,000 miles of testing on the truck. And now it’s street-legal, as it’s been granted one of Nevada’s “Autonomous Vehicle” license plates (the first for a commercial truck) by Nevada governor Brian Sandoval, according to a recent article on the Verge, “This is the first road-legal big rig that can drive itself.”

Looks like reality is once again outrunning fiction.

Driverless cars will need to have many sensors.
Those sensors will have to be cleaned, inspected and calibrated a lot.
People don't even maintain their regular cars properly nowadays.
If a sensor malfunctions it might make the car go off the road or crash into another car.
Lawsuits are what will prevent driverless cars from happening.

Anti-lock brakes give you less control over the braking of the vehicle as do anti-collision systems on heavy trucks that are now being used on passenger cars. Computerized ignition systems give you less control over engine performance. Drivers are being conditioned to be comfortable with having less control over vehicle performance.
The USA has some very deep car culture roots. To many folks their car = liberty.

I don't agree. The driver has nearly as much control over our cars today as we did before the first chip ever found its way into a car. The brakes still work even if the anti-lock mechanism fails. The anti-lock mechanism only rarely kicks in, and that's only when you brake poorly. That's a million miles from taking a nap as you cross town. Besides, anti-lock brakes have been around for over 30 years.
I think cruise control would have been a better example of people giving up control, except it's been around forever and is very passive in its operation.

I disagree for a third time. Americans are so use to new tech that they adopt it easily, especially young people under 30. And, anyone over the age of 30 is happy to not have to drive.
In other words, you agree that the driver has less control.I don't agree. The driver has nearly as much control
