You don't need them to be networked to get large benefits from computer controlled, and doing so adds a lot of complexity. At 60 mph the stopping distance including reaction time is typically referred to as around 80 meters[1], and that includes 20 meters of reaction time. In modern cars like Teslas it's more like 40 meters[2], but 20 meters of that 80 (or 40) is human reaction time. If you can cut that down due to much faster computer reaction times you can get a lot more road throughput, of course a logical step after that is to consider networking the computer control, but talking about that from the get-go seems to me to be needlessly jumping several steps ahead. 1. https://www.brake.org.uk/facts-resources/15-facts/1255-speed https://www.brake.org.uk/facts-resources/15-facts/1255-speed 2. https://www.theverge.com/2018/5/30/17409782/consumer-reports-tesla-model-3 https://www.theverge.com/2018/5/30/17409782/consumer-reports...
