text: I understand the idea, and to me it sounds cool. But are we going to risk several other problems to look cool? Driverless cars might be useful; to the handicap, those without legs. They could also be used to those who aren't as good drivers. It notifies the driver when the car needs attention so it would seem okay to just watch what's going on. However, Driverless cars would be tempting for drivers to not pay attention. If they don't pay attention, it could cause wrecks, accidental turns, who knows? You might end up at the wrong place. Lawmakers themself even agree that safety is best achieved with alert drivers. Also, if we went driverless, it would give drunks an "ok" to drive because technically, they aren't driving.. which would cause a whole nother problem.
