I disagree, mostly based on reality. When I go out in a car I take my life and my families' lives in my hands. I live in Philadelphia in the U.S.. When I go driving, I constantly dodge other cars making a left hand turn from the right hand lane, city buses that consider red lights "suggestions," cars that slam on their brakes for a parking spot, cars driven by lost tourists paying attention to anything but the road in front of them... The best thing my father ever taught me when I was learning to drive is "you don't drive for just yourself, you have to drive for everyone on the road, because they can't be trusted to do it themselves." Philadelphia is notoriously hostile to bikers. It seems to me most people don't know that, at least here, bikes have to obey the same laws as cars - ride on the road (not the sidewalk), stop for red lights, etc. Even bikers seem confused about road laws (or flagrantly ignore them). I'm all for bike lanes, new driver education, and whatever makes everyone safer. But self-driving cars aren't an indictment of our laziness, but rather our inability to drive safely all of the time. Making noise about how biker safety is everyone's responsibility is ideal, but the reality is a far different story. So if Volvo's contribution here to personal responsibility for safety helps a few people live longer, then bravo. It's available now, ubiquitous self-driving cars are not. That's the reality of the situation. Stay safe.
