Tesla may need to follow Google’s example and go slow on the self driving car. If its not ready, it’s just not ready for the public. Try it in specific circumstances first, such as a
bus going stop to stop. I could see myself using that. But sitting in a car passively while being pushed to and fro at the robot’s pace, I don’t know. I’m not ready to give up the control and the occasional FUN that driving can be.
It can be FUN figuring out how to navigate a busy highway at rush hour, or using one’s reflexes to avoid a near miss.
I wouldn’t have the same pleasure if a machine were trusted to do it all for me.

The plans are to have vehicles talk to each other.

I dont want them deciding my car is the one to crash if an accident is going to happen.

I will not own a self driving car.
