They voted on that crap years ago and there's barely been actual progress with enforcing it this year! And even so my neighbor just got a brand new Impala and it didn't even have one...until horses and buggies are completely banned from using the roads then I take all the automated talk as just talk..
I would bet flying cars become way more common than fully automated vehicles in the future....will be interesting to see what flying car Toyota comes up with for the 2020 Olympics.. |
I didn't say a thing about fully automated I said all the assist crap. Each of your arguments are valid on a rational basis. Is your (or our) government well know for their rational decisions? I bet we see the stuff required in all cars within 10 years. As long as they maintain an off switch like they have now that won't interfere with anybody's driving pleasure.
Oh and if they ever do go fully automatic you may see more horse and buggies on the road since it will indeed be safer for them
