text: A driverless car seems very possible within the next few years but I dont see any reasoning behind the fact that we dont need it. Maybe for older folks who have trouble or someone having so much money for one they just get one for the fact that they want to say that they have it. Also technicaly it's not even a "driverless" car. You still have to be awake, aware, & control it through tough spots like a car crash, & road work.
