I think of this more as dealing with the present (and unpleasant) reality. I prefer buses and trains, but we haven't found a way to get people to fund and use them enough to make them viable outside big cities.
A lot of the gridlock in my city comes from people doing stupid things that force other drivers to slow down to avoid a wreck. Automated cars would reduce the impact of bad drivers by removing them from the equation.

I live in a village of <5000 and have access to a frequent train service into London, and another hub in the other direction. From there I can get to pretty much any town in the country in typically no more than three hops, and usually quicker than I could drive. It's not perfect, and funding /is/ a problem, but please don't assume that your experience is universal, or that yours is the only country represented here.
