I am a passionate car guy, and I love to drive... ...but a) I would relish the opportunity on my daily commute to let my car take over for me; and, b) more importantly, I would love to know that the majority of drivers around me are *not* driving their car while putting on makeup, eating a Big Mac, or whatever the hell else they do. We can dramatically reduce the death rate in the US with the implementation of "driverless" cars. A simple override switch on the autopilot can/will allow for fun driving, but for much of typical driving needs, autonomous cars are not only desirable, but I'd argue necessary.
