The average American spends about an hour a day driving. You are awake for about 16 hours a day. So truly self-driving cars, where you can fall asleep or pull out your laptop and work on something else, give you 1/16th of your life back. If you live to the age of 80, it's like an extra five years. That's worth a lot.

Or at least it's not something I get excited over.
