In the 1950s people would have said that we'd never see the day that drinking and driving wasn't legal, just that insurance would get higher and higher. Yet today, finally, nearly all states have made it illegal to drink and drive. This is just the useful extension of what that started.
It's things like this that make me think they'll simply outlaw human driving (on open roads) instead of dealing with lawsuits about murder if you are a driver.
That's what I assume, but not until there are lawsuits first to trigger it.

That being said I don't think we will see a regulation to stop people from driving... I think insurance will become prohibitively expensive so that the only people who can afford to drive would be the extremely rich. That will also die out when we see that driving yourself is an insane thing to do even for the wealthy.
See this is the opposite than I expect, I expect the rich to flock to self driving, granting them more time to do whatever while being transported, huge win for them.
That's the thing about self driving... everyone wins. The rich already have drivers, this just lowers the cost a little. But it levels the playing field so that the poor can use their time better, too.

Though the insurance thing do it, but why would drive the prices of insurance up?
Insurance on self driving will plummet as there is almost never a fault to pay out on. Insurance for those intentionally being risky will skyrocket as there is less and less excuse for it.

I am expecting self driving cars to start including the insurance, did you see Volvo's new "Care" plan.
Still cant figure out if its financing or just a rental agreement...

yeah, this will definitely happen, but I think it will still take over 10 years from the time self driving cars hit the road in mass numbers, if not longer.
Of course, I hope to be completely wrong on that - I yearn for the self driving future! -

The self-driving car revolution can't come soon enough.
tell me about it.
Well, the Lidar sensors are generally quite expensive still. While some companies claim to have solved that issue, getting a machine learning platform to learn all the nuances involved in operating a multi-ton object safely still seems to be a challenge
The probable worse issue is getting the cars to anticipate what crazy humans will do.
That's why we need to outlaw the dangerous pieces and just keep the safe ones. They've already shown that the track record thus far is that ALL accidents are being caused by humans.
Sadly, people feel that their rights are being taken away by not being allowed to drive.
Who believes they have a right to drive? I've never seen that claimed. The whole licensing processes kind of goes against that.
Try taking the keys from your elderly parent when its unsafe for them to drive but they don't see it that way.
Exactly - though this is not exactly the same. At least in the city - making all cars self driving doesn't keep you locked at home. If anything it's more freeing for a person.
We have somewhat had that ever since taxis have existed. You're just paying somebody else to do the driving for you.
Yes and no. In today's world, you often own a car
You have to have the original copy of the MSO to actually own a vehicle. I know of 4 vehicles (all owned by the same family), that can actually prove private ownership. The title you get from the state is proving the state owns the vehicle you happen to drive.
So, yes, you have a point, but 99.9% of vehicles are owned the state of original sale, not us.

Having to pay taxes on things, having titles, registration and such doesn't change who owns it.

What makes you feel that you don't own your car?

MCO is just paperwork and isn't ownership. We know any website talking about that isn't talking about actual real world ownership. States don't keep those either. If MCO / MSO was required to own something, then cars can't be owned at all, which is obviously a silly concept.

Here is an easy test of car ownership to see if a state, federal government, or you own a car....
Can you drive it out of the country to Canada or Mexico? Can you sell it while there? If the answers are yes, you are the owner of the car.

Yeah, all those old American muscle cars in Japan are totally still owned by the state.
Also forget another country. What about another state. That basically is another country. I guess I don’t own my second hand 2010 Honda Insight registered in Illinois. That was originally sold in New Jersey and registered in New York.

Isn't the MCO/MSO specifically for tariff purposes and has nothing to do with the end user? Seems odd to require a tax document to prove ownership.

Correct, it's just manufacturing legal documentation. Has nothing to do with ownership. And even the states don't keep them, so obviously they can't be part of the ownership.
