Whoa there tiger...you mean cars don't drive themselves right now? Damn...talk about lucky...I always wondered what that big f'ing wheel was doing there, I kept spilling my coffee when I would use it for a cup holder and it was no good for a little table...it's all starting to make sense now. :)

But no, I don't know if I would. It would be pretty freaky having no control over the car...because what if there was a glitch or a system freeze in the computer? You'd be f'ed and wouldn't be able to do anything about it. On the other hand, there would likely be less accidents overall and insurance would plummet. :) Still kinda scary though...

I would be all over that. It would make my life so much easier...not to mention longer because there would be no more road rage.

Well as long as it was optional and not forced :)

sure... it'd be like having my own personal bus. as long as it was accident free, of course.
