True, but can you imagine Mad Max in a electric? Wow, that's just lame.
Solar panels and batteries in the desert would make a hell of a lot more sense than random oil rigs / refineries
And everything would be so much faster. And you could sneak up on people better.
I'd have to put playing cards in the wheels.

I'm tired of being teased - when can I buy my own self-driving car?????????????????????

Seriously. Or, what I really want, is when can everyone else get a self driving car!!

Car accidents will drop. In fact the other day I was thinking about how sometime in the not-too-distant future, people who drive themselves will be considered reckless, like driving with a cellphone or bottle of whisky in your hand, as they'll cause most accidents.

This is probably true... I would still prefer to drive myself but I feel the cost of insurance on a vehicle of the manual nature will be extraordinary.

I like the idea of driving myself but it is worth giving that up to stop everyone else from driving themselves. But, as much as I like driving, getting to read a book, post to ML and drink wine while traveling in my car are worth a LOT to me.

I spend about an hour in the car each day... if I could turn that time into something resembling productive (even playing a video game) I would give up driving.

I think most video games will be tough just because of the unavoidable car motion.

I was thinking 3DS or something similar... even an emulator on the phone is very nice to have on long trips.

Hmmm, I get car sick when reading a book in the car... not when playing games.
