I love driving, but adaptive cruise control has given me a little taste of autonomous driving and I can see the appeal. Drive while you still can, and embrace the convenience that comes when we can't.


I hope that all comes to pass long after I'm gone.


I don't know how long you have left, but I can't imagine it happening in the next decade.

Ain't gonna happen until the technology is 99.9999 percent perfect in adverse conditions (rain, snow, snow/ice covered roads, etc) and rural roads.
