Ten things the driverless generation will never experience
- dalke 11y ago1) Speeding tickets, 2) Drivers Ed classes, 3) Getting lost, 4) Parallel parking, 5) Driver prejudice, 6) Fender benders, 7) Road rage, 8) Car theft, 9) Roadkill, 10) The Stig At the least I expect that drivers ed courses will still be present for those who go off-roading, or snowmobiling. Even in a regular car, I've been on the Bonneville Salt Flats and some driveable beaches, where there are no marked road, and of course events like Burning Man have their own street system and speed limits that won't be on any car nav system. Regarding 7's "they will not drive too fast or too slow" - I suspect passengers will be able to select how to optimize the route, as some people will want to minimize cost, rather than time, and have the car drive more slowly. Or a loaded vehicle may drive more slowly uphill than an unloaded one. I therefore imagine there will still be road rage should a slow vehicle, especially one which is voluntarily going slower, should block someone who wants to go faster.
