Personally I like to drive. I spend countless hours with a steering wheel in my hands.... I take it seriously, and in all my years and countless miles, I have had not a single wreck or injury there of...
But it is patently obvious to me there are great pressures at work to create driverless cars and trucks, being waged upon those who think they have the right to take us out of our drivers seat, because humans are not perfect, and wreck cars and trucks with abandon.. SO we can not be trusted to do it ourselves...
So off in the future, and now we have no drivers. Who is to say that the powers that be will not control us, but in fact will be able to do so because they CAN control your transportation device, that thing you used to drive by yourself? I mean if GPS and a device do your driving for you, can not that same device be controlled or shut off, or limit you to were some one else wants you to go? I for one would be quite surprised if the powers that be would not build in their form of control.... If you can not be trusted to drive, and give this right away to those who will take it, can they be trusted to let you go were and when, you want to?
Or am I just being overly cautious, and untrusting of the powers that be???
I think we as a nation should have a voice in all of this some how...
What say you?
